Real nice Hahn...good luck with it. Looks like you got some hose and appliances with it...excellent that they left bell, Q2B, etc....cool Mars light.



Everything operational mechanical-wise?



Is that the original Hahn body with a refurb, or a new body?

Thanks,

Gary

Thanks



I am not to sure about the body, I was told that the body was replaced by KME. But after talking to Bruce and the fire co, its there other Hahn that got the KME body which is was scraped. I am still unsure. The fire co wanted the bell so i swapped them with one i had and they gave me some hose. And the other items i picked up from local fire compaines wanting to move some old equipment. As far as operational it worked when they parked it. I have yet to flow water, but after the project mentioned below it should work.



The first project i started this winter,I thought it would be a good idea to polish up and get some items around the pump panel rechromed. Now I am repainting the whole pump and I have all of my pump panels off getting polished. And i am going to be rebuilding alot of the valves so i can pump it at Pump primers this year. Started off as a small project and it keeps getting bigger. I will post some pics of the clean up pump and what not tonight or tomorrow.
