Both Central Square's and Oswego County's first tanker. A 1939 Ford/Local 1200 gal of water. This truck was hated from the moment it went into service (1950 to 1953). My opinion is that is wasn't enough chassis for the 1200 gal water tank. A 47 Chevy replaced it in 1953. The truck, or at least parts of it still lives today in a neat little street rod. A local man ended up with it and used the cab and some of the sheet metal for his street rod, still painted red. I have a picture of it some where.
