The bodywork on this rig caught my attention immediately. Back in the 1960's and 70's, there was a small shop in Cattaraugus, NY called Fitzgerald Welding. In addition to building utility bodies, dump bodies, wreckers and snowplows, Jack Fitzgerald built fire apparatus. His apparatus were simple and basic, but they got the job done. Most were on a commercial chassis where he mounted a bumper pump, his body and a red light on the roof, often assembled in one day. His bodywork looked just like the bodywork on this rig. I wonder if this might be an old Fitzgerald Welding body remounted onto a newer chassis.
