They still have it and it is totally operateable. This picture was taken in 1990 in Lower Burrell at the Western PA Firemens Convention.

This Fox must be awesome to drive - There's almost more in front than off the back, and its a quad! Like driving from the jumpseats...very cool. And I wonder what the reflection of the Roto-Ray gleaming off the pressure ball up front looks like at night. Awesome.



Great photos, and Happy Holidays to everybody

Thanks,

Gary
