When I was a kid, we had a '47 to '55 1st Design style GMC fire truck at our local station house. I don't know much about badging on those old trucks, but it was either the heaviest style or one below it. It had "GENERAL" on the front of the hood. It was a gas engine and it had a very distintive sound to it. I could tell what was coming down the road before they even got the siren going. I'm wondering now if that was a 503 or possibly a 707. Anyone know of any sites with sounds of those old monsters?
