Steve- I just did a quick count and Chicago had 82 Ford C pumpers between 1967 & 1988 that ran as Engine Companies. They were built by Ward LaFrance, Pierce, Seagrave, and E\-One. They also had five Ford C/Pirsch rear-mount aerial ladder trucks. They also had a Ford C hose truck, and at least two Ford C gas trucks.

The old Gardenville Volunteer Fire Protection District in St. Louis County Missouri ran the the Ford C's. This picture show old Engine Co. 72 just after the Affton Fire Protection District took over the department in early 80's.
