I passed this rig on way home from Shore today at a rollover accident. It looked sharp!

This is the same photo that I have on my profile.  It was the only Crown Snorkel built on the wide cab chassis.  This truck has been "lost" for years, until this week when it was found going up for auction at a county fire department in TN.  Oh, to have the space and money for this one of a kind Crown.

I found this while looking for some other pics in my archives. I have no history on the rig but recall taking the pic about a dozen years ago on the pier where the USS Missouri is tied up at Pearl Harbor.

It is one of the former Honolulu engines.  A couple of them were purchased by this outfit and large spot lights were mounted on them

Here's some info from the Crown is King site... It was privately owned, then donated I believe to the Hall of Flame.
