This is what I have on the "armored" car - 1938 Ford, full cab, chassis with custom body, in 1951, Ed Marsh who was a borough councilman-was also president of Marsh Motor Protective Agency-donated a used armored bank truck to the borough and the fire company-co. members built shelves for interior and converted it into a emergency unit, in service till 1953.
