Not to beat a dead horse, but I thought it is on an Impel Chassis.

Damn, y'all are a tough crowd. I have written down in my notes Odell's truck was a Velocity but Pierce's website says Impel. Anything else I screwed up on someone wants to correct???????

I am looking for a 1987 Pierce arrow (Engine 91) that originally served at United Communities VFD in Maryland. If anyone has any info where it went or a picture, please post. I only know that it is supposed to be in the Carolinas.



Thanks,



Rob

This one was kind of a surprise for a volunteer department. This truck was purchased to protect UNC-Pembroke, the multi-story dorms, and other large buildings on the campus of the university.

Here is the real reason I wanted to stop at Pembroke Rural. This is a rarity, It is an ALF Pioneer cab on a Chevrolet Chassis to keep costs down. The idea did not catch on, and I tried to do some research but this may be the only one. I have heard there were as many as 3 made like this, but that is just rumor. Any ALF experts want to chime in? Sorry for the inside shot, the motor was blown and couldn't be moved.
