Caught this rig outside the South Fork, Colorado Fire Station.
It's a 1980 Ford F-700 4x4/Grumman Firecat (I have no idea why they have the HOWE plate on the front). Ford 429 Gasoline engine,
1000 GPM Waterous pump, looks like 500 gallons of water.
It seems like it's in pretty good shape and probably hasn't sat outside too long. But, nobody was around to ask. South Fork has a huge station that I would have loved to get a look inside. Maybe next year...
