American LaFrance 600 Series

The 600 Series was a custom chassis produced by American LaFrance from 1941 to 1946. It was nearly identical to the prior 500 Series visually (with the exception of the 600 Series having a wider fillet between the front fenders and grille, as well as a 500 having three small grille bars in each of four sections (separated by larger/thicker bars), while a 600 had four); but boasted many substantial mechanical improvements to the pump, engine, and other components.

Like the Type 500 before it, the 600 Series had its' own sub-variant, the Type 600. The Type 600 was a smaller and lesser-cost alternative to the 600 Series, utilizing parts of cabs from International Harvester trucks.
