It is actually a 1935 International. I believe this was built by a volunteer company in Montgomery or Chester Co. PA. I'd have to check the make of the pump. The body is a 1911 hose wagon that came from the Philadelphia Fire Department. The body is mounted om the frame with 6"x8"x36" timber as spacers!
We currently have this in storage. Upon completeion of our appartus bay expansion this year, we plan to make an enclosed bay in the original engine room to house this in the station.
