The original paint job is nearly identical to the Hamerly hocky stick, a firm that was gone 4-5 years prior to this Century piece. Note the placement of the American LaFrance emblem high on the rear side, a Hamerly trait. Awesome rig.

Someone at Edcouch should do a walk around video of this with the lights on at night. Glad they kept those classic lights probably looks great lit up!

Best looking cab ever, the ALF’s! !Very interesting looking rig, Haven’t seen too many ALF tenders. That’s a strange Backstep cab refurb though.

That’s an impressive monster. Appears to sit pretty high almost looks like an airport crash truck.
