I had to travel to West Virginia on business and managed to take several apparatus photos from West Virginia FD's in which I have very little information on. I hoping firepics members can help.
I stopped off in Flatwoods to gas up the car and found several unique trucks.
This first one was sitting at a local truck stop. In the front seat was a for sale sign with a telephone number (I left a message and have heard nothing).
It is a Ford C900/Sanford with a a 1000gpm pump. Outside of that, I have no info. I checked the cab for any information and there is not one manufacturer plate - no plates from Ford or Sanford. Everything has been removed. The pump panel also did not provide any information regarding the year of the truck. I have no idea what FD this Ford once served. It is one of the few Sanford's I have photographed.
There was also a wasp nest in the process of being built just inside the Ford cab - I was ticking off some bees so I did not have much more time (or desire)to climb around this truck.
Anyone recognize where this might be from?
