Quote:I'm not sure when the last Crown was built with a gas motor but I know they were still used into the 70s when specified by a department.
According to the Crown book I have, the last gas-powered Crown Firecoach (F-1627) went to Live Oak, CA in 1970, powered by a Waukesha 817G. The last Hall-Scott powered Firecoach pumpers were a trio of 4x4's that went to Kauai County, Hi. in 1969 (F-1595, F-1596, & F-1597).
