Just as a bit of a history lesson, the 1948 American LaFrance ended-up in-service for Bluffton Fire Department in Bluffton, Ohio. And painted, too, eek!
Three years ago, we were told that the truck was still at the station and used in local parades. Only after going there were we told that the truck had actually been sold off a good time before that! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bitch.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rant:' />
I don't suppose anyone knows where this truck is now...? The firefighter I last spoke with in Bluffton said he thought it had gone to a private party in Lima, Ohio.
