John, was the Spartan/3D rehabbed into a 4-door cab. It looks like it was originally a canopy cab. Mike

Tor: Yes it was. From what I uderstand, it had the flat doors on the rear of the cab. The command cab was added later, however the driver did not know who did it, or when. I could not find any info.

John, thanks for the reply. Mike

Here is the back end of E-2 The FF who helped us said that there were 1400' of 3" and 4" on the reels. I was going to roll them out and measure, but I always get into trouble when I try that.

This is a repost of a new delivery.





Eagle Lake MN R-4301 2006 GMC 5500 4WD/Custom Fire Walkin rescue.



This rig is rare, in my opinion, in that is has a gasoline engine. When asked, the FF indicated that for budget reasons, they had to make the change.
