Ain't got anything to brag on here at the house so I'll brag on my continueing project truck at work. Started off as a military surplus turn in, 1986 Chevy 3/4 Ton with a 1.25 Ton drive train. First thing was we shatched the bed off and built a custom flatbed. Then we built the tank on a sskid frame so if we needed to pump water at one place for an extended period of time we just unscrew 5 bolts and the pump, tank, and hose real will come off as a unit. After we got the pump and reel mounted and plumbed, then we added a 3" body lift to the cab and stuck on a set of 36" swampers. Next was the 12K lb. warn winch on the step bumper. All along ya have the little stuff to get installed, light bar, radio, siren, exterior work lights, and the list goes on and on. The thing this truck has over all the new quick responce trucks we have is that I ain't scared to ding it up. Collaps a fender, go to the bone yard, take off another one on a truck going to auction, throw it on, prime and paint. Fully equiped with all the fire fighting equipment, which is expencive stuff, we probably ain't got $15K in the whole set-up. We're trying to save those tax dollars.
So without further adue, here she is.............
