Tom,



Additional info on the Minquas of Downingtown rig:



1949 Autocar/U.S. Fire Apparatus, full cab, 750/250, purchased by the borough for $13,500, housed on 10/14/49. The company retained this piece and had it restored. It is used as a parade piece.

In 1945 the Fire Company purchased a 1945 Mack fire engine, with a "War Necessity Certificate", as World War II was still being fought. The engine is still owned by the company.
