Relics - OPEN CAB MACK - 08-05-2010

   

This Mack CF recently served at the Indiana County Fire Acadamy. It also served at New Alexandria in Westmoreland County. It too is for sale.

You have to love this Chevy. It has a 250 gpm pump. I forgot where it served. But it too is at Fortunatos.

This shot was taken a few months ago outside of the Dryridge, Westmoreland County station. It is for sale, not sure how much. This was refurbed years back and is in great shape.

Fortunato's is turning into a grave yard!! It's a shame to see everything that is there now, rotting away. He has doubled the amount of rigs since I was there last.

The ex West Newton tiller is also at Fortunatos. This rig is for sale too. Doesn't look real bad.

Oh god, don't tell Joel Bain about this, or else he will be sleeping on my couch!!!!

The West Newton tiller failed aerial inspection, which is why it was sold. It has been sitting outside for almost 2 years now.

Aultman seems to come to mind for the Suburban. I remember seeing it on here once before.

Can anybody give me some info on this Fortunato's company in PA? Having a difficult time getting anyone there on the phone. Does anyone locally know if this Coal Run rig is still there?



PM me if necessary.

Chester, Dave Fortunato is the owner. He worked for Burt Lambert in Latrobe for years and went out on his own years ago. I stopped there a week and a half ago and the photos I posted were of all the trucks at his shop. Alot of times he takes a truck on a trade for work performed. The Coal Run rig is there. Dave is a friend of mine and does all of the maintenance on the engines of our city. PM me if you have any questions.


Relics - Roto-Ray - 08-14-2010

This Spartan/Darley was once operated by the Rescue Fire Company 37 of Susquehannah Twp, PA. It's now located in a salvage yard in Cumberland County, VA.
