Here are some 500-DHTT pictures from Yonkers, NY.
Here's a 1967 500-DHTT from Reno, NV. Reno purchased 4 of them.

I didn't know they were still making 500-DHTTs in 1967. I was under the impression that they were discontinued in the 50's. Also, I might be wrong, but I wonder if the 500-DHTTs that some fire departments in Nevada have now came from Reno.

Thunderbolt that got removed in a 1960s yearbook of Avondale High School.
Oh look! It's my photo. To clarify, this was a DeKalb County, GA unit and the yearbook was from 1964 I found it in. Only a pole and blower pipe remains of it today.

In The Inner Ring (1967) a Super Sirex is shown rotating at the start of the movie.

Here's a picture of a Colorado Springs 500-DHTT. I think this photo is from the late '60s

It was at the back of the fire station until it suffered from storm damage in 2000.
