Crown Firecoaches

[wallyb132]

I know that this thread is really old, but i had to add my 2 cent to it.

This crown is:

Serial number F1776
1977 Firecoach 50' Telesqiurt
1500gpm pump
300 gal tank

This truck served as San Buenaventura City Fire Department (aka Ventura City Fire) Engine 1 throughout my childhood, It was this truck that sparked my life long interest in and love for Crown Firecoach apparatus. This truck and the other 3 that Ventura City once had. Sadly this truck was  donated to Mexico.

In the second picture is Ventura County E24 in the front with Ventura E1 behind it. That was a familiar sight throughout my entire childhood as I grew up in between the 2 stations. My father was a firefighter for Ventura County for many years when i was young.
