R-1 1994 International 4800 4WD/RSQ Specialty Vehicles. Possible SN#94051
RSQ vehicles is lifeline emregency vehicles in sumner iowa, they no longer do rescue rigs they only produce ambulances. the old facility is now the lifeline remount facility where they remount ambulances. in talking with the older staff there they loved making the rescue bodies and miss doing them. the company shifted towards ambulances and left the rescue body business behind. they had made some really cool trucks for different customers like the shell refinery in texas on a huge peterbuilt chassis that could double as an ambulance capable of carrying multiple patients. they also made small rescue bodies on f series ford chassis and such for sheriifs dept's. i will see if i can get more information on this truck from some connections i have at lifeline.[/quote]
