Back in 1983, the first of 3 years that we attended the annual Tunxis Hose Company parade in Unionville, Town of Farmington, Connecticut, there was a fairly new ALF from Fishkill very similar to this one if not the same engine that had to be flatbedded back home about 80 miles because the transmission went upon arrival in town.
