I don't think this rig was new to them. I try asking them a few times that I've visited them but no one really knew where she came from.

Murchison, Tx Engine 1 1979 Duplex/Pierce 1750/1000 [/quote] Billy, I am pretty sure it is the following rig. You can see the year and tank are not a match. It looks like it has been modified at sometime (hosebed is higher) - which too me would go along with the larger tank. This is the info i have on this - from Al Powell's files. I don't think Moon Lake is a valid FC anymore - part of Pasco County now, so it might fit in. Anyway confirming the year and where they got it from ? Many thanks, Bruce McKinley Fire Company (Montgomery County, PA) 1976 Duplex R300/Pierce, Cincinnati canopy cab, supply pumper, 1750/750, 6V71N Detroit diesel, Allison auto trans, Waterous pump, prepiped deck gun, 4 engineer’s compartments ahead of pump panel, 180 in.WB, housed 9-11-76, in 1989 sold to Goodyear Hose-Galeton (Potter Co.),PA, in 2000 traded-in by Galeton on new AmerLaFr Eagle pumper, in 2000 offered for sale-see FIRE REPORTER Sept/Oct 2000 pg 16-asked $33,000, by 10-00 sold by Northeast Fire Apparatus to Moonlake VFD,(Pasco County,FL).
