How I wished Micah (BFD1151) could have been with me on this mission. The next two trucks you'll see are trucks that formerly ran with Burnsville FD, the FD he is a volunteer member of! They have been searching for these rigs off and on for years now. I'm just glad to see the two old gals are safe and secure, and in better than showroom condition after a long service life!
The last track BFD had of this truck, it was sold by them in the late 1990's to a man in Morganton, NC, who planned to use it as a work vehicle on some sort of tree farm. Apparently, the man later contacted the current owner and offered the truck for sale to him. They bought it and made it a part of the collection, where it still sits today!
