How are you considering these rigs "Sisters"? By builder/ fabricator, visual similarities? or by cab years 48-50 Ford F5?
There is no "sister" truck.
Hewlett "Smokey Stover's" before the Mosior modification is the closest.
Then again it is not an exact match to the Atlantic Steamer B-Truck.

Actually there were two sister trucks to the Mudhens truck with one truck still racing. They would be the current Baldwin rig(ex-East Meadow) and the old Termites(ex Woodmere/ex Roslyn Rescue) blue 54 Ford. Unsure of who was the builder of these rigs though. Of the three only the Mudhens truck retained the original design of the hosebed.

As usual, He Who Is All That Is B-Trucks..., or more commonly known as Circusmonkey, has hit the bullseye on this one.
I had forgotten about the old New Hyde Park truck, which was originally built for the Woodmere Clamdiggers, was of the same design as East Meadow's, before both trucks has the rear body cut down.

Here is the East Meadow "Meadowlark" Rig before the back body cut down.  |
