Vinny,

I'm guessing mid to late 70's. The photo was taken in the early 80's after the truck was bought used and painted Scout colors.

Sadly my father and his partners shuttered the business in the mid 90's and everything went to auction. At the time, I was in my early 20's with not a lot of money and no place to store a single axle.

It's an awesome event. This year's event was the 37th annual. It started with what they call a scream parade. All the trucks gather at a huge parking lot and parade through parts of Harrisburg with lights and sirens going like crazy. Then ends along the banks of the river where there is a muster and show. You can go to youtube and put in 2012 Pennsylvania Pump Primers and see videos of the parade and muster.

Thanks. I like your handle, as I too have always loved the old U models.

You are correct. My fingers were typing faster then my mind was working and I didn't go back and edit my post before I posted it.
