Also shot a couple of FLEET ARROW chassis for Line trucks built at the Utility Division.
Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.
When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery!  Quote:A couple of 2-Door, Non-Crew Cab, DASH Chassis Pumpers shot at the Factory during one of my early trips to Appleton. These are the D-8000 version of the Dash. Designed to compete with the Ford C-8000, they featured the same Cat 3208T diesel and Allison MT-643 transmission, but in a custom chassis. Pierce had a couple of flatbed trucks with this cab that I saw there around the same time. They were painted blue and had matching flatbed trailers. They were used to ferry parts from the downtown factory to the other two locations. I should have taken pictures of them! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='  ' />

When I find them I'll post them if you want......

Lealman,FD Now Housed at ST.Pete Station #2 1998 Pierce/Saber 1250/500 65' [/quote] Pinellas just reassigned some Station #'s, Pinellas Park #21 with Rescue 21 has been assigned #37 (Rescue 37) to coinside with their other Stations (33,34,35,36). #21, which was originally assigned to the now defunct Kenneth City Fire Department, has been reassigned to the Tierra Verde contract station operated now by Lealman. So the engine pictured, Engine 2 is now Engine 21, I'm sure all that was changed was the number placard. I'm guessing #2 will remain for use with St. Petersburg Fire Rescue, although no new stations are planned or needed.
