One they nicknamed the "Bushwacker", the other was named the "9th Division Commander". The rig posted is the older one. I'm not sure where it ended up when replaced by the Seagrave in 1998.
Opencabmack,
It's probably good that Kittanning bought the Seagrave. I was told the pump was shot on the mack at progress, and that was the reason they were getting rid of it.[/quote]
I was told the Progress Mack had alot of miles on it and that it was time. Did not know about the pump. There is a picture of the Seagrave they bought. I saw it here, not sure under which thread. I know they are happy with the purchase of the Seagrave. Thanks Shoop.
