This a late 1920's or early 1930's Seagrave pumper.

This is not a Seagrave. There is horizontal bar between headlights and this one is LHD.

What is LHD? I guess it could be something else, I guess a American LaFrance.

LHD is Left Hand Drive.

Oh. This looks much newer than when American's didn't care what side they put the wheel on.
