I think a lot of departments that are ordering Pierce rigs are leaving off the stainless wrap. We did spec it on our 2008 Dash but chopped it because of cost.

We purchased a used Pierce two yrs ago an had a local body shop change the color, we left off the stainless band. Ours had one that covered both sides as well as the front an I can attest to the fact that it was a mess underneath it! You wouldn't believe the road film an salt that was tucked up under there.

EX: Kansas City, Kansas

EX: Broken Bow, Oklahoma

1964

# Unknown number

ONE of TWO purchased

International 8190-CO/ Pierce/ Snorkel

750/0000 (Pump added by KCK Shops much later no tank)

75ft Snorkel



KCK shops at one time were very innovative and well equipped. They made many unique modifications to rigs over the years. Although missing the driver side beacon. Older KCK rigs are easy to ID due to the Red and White Federal Flat top beacons mounted on pipes. Red was always driver side mounted and White with two red bulbs officer side mounted.



Interesting fact this was replaced in Broken Bow by Kansas City, Missouri's 1964/1979 E\-One/ Hendrickson/ 75ft Pittman Snorkel that served Snorkel 2 at Fire House 17.

In 1984 this unit replaced a 1973 ALF Pace-Maker 100ft Ladder as Ladder 1. The ALF Pace-Maker entered reserve and the 1947 100ft ALF 700 series reserve ladder was sold to private owners. The private owners later donated the 1947 to Baldwin City, Kansas FD were it served until 1998-1999.

Hi Rick - I'm Jeff Bradshaw (AzBradshawALF) in Scottsdale, AZ. I'm the current owner of the 1947 ex-Salina 100' ladder (L-3142). It's great to hear some mention of this rig! After Baldwin City had dispostioned it in the early 90's it eventualy would up with a private party in Viola, KS who reportedly had purchased it to re-roof a silo. They never did the job and, according to the previous owner, it sat under an oak tree for about 3 years. I purchased the truck in late 2006 and it's awaiting restoration behind 2 other 700 series rigs, 1951 ALF ex-Lawarence, KS Pumper A-13 (L-4286) and a 1949 ALF series 75' Ladder (L-3938) ex-Scottsbluff, Nebraska.

Jeff that is great to hear. I would love to see photos. After Salina it was purchased by a group of Lawrence, KS Firemen and they donated it to Baldwin City. Can you post photos of the Salina, and Lawrence rigs? Please PM me I have Salina's history book and my good friend is Lawrence's Historian. I might be able to provide you with some information photos when you get ready for the restoration. Lawrence has a nice photo of Ladder 1 1947 ALF 700, Engine 1 1951 ALF 700, and Engine 2 1955 ALF 700 in front of Fire House 1. It looks really cool with all 700's in front. The Lawrence 700's were placed into reserve in 1967 when three new Seagrave K Models were received for Engine 1, 2, 3. Lawrence still has the 1955 700 on display at old No2.
