Steve Skaar posted some of Duane Troxel's photos from San Antonio, and this sure looks like one of the rigs.

Lindsay/all,
San Antonio had two 1952 Mack B85 pumpers. My notes show one of these was sold to the LaVernia, TX VFD in 1979 while the other went to the Waelder, TX VFD in 1983. I have a VIN for the Waelder rig (ENF707B20874) but nothing beyond this. The '52 Mack photo from Duane Troxel's collection shows either this rig at Waelder or the one that went to LaVernia.
