Quote:Quakertown, PA also ran this 1974 GMC/Reading squad. I shot a similar rig at Trumbauersville, PA years ago. Could it be the same unit?

I live in Franklin County, can get you anything you want current... I don't think I have much of the old stuff though.

I will take anything you got Rheems. Instead of putting them in here either PM me or put them in another thread since there not Relics.
