In 1991, Engine 3 was refurbed with a new complete fire body. The refurb was done by New Lexington. It was their very first refurb. In fact, it was painted in a barn at New Lexington, before they had a paint booth. In 1994, it was sent to 4-Guys to have the front bumper extended and a trashline added along with Insta-Chains.
