Kansas City area fire apparatus

[MFD76]

1957 American Lafrance 800 series with right officers side pump panel. This was to match the sister 1954 ALF 700 series at Mission.

Mission Fire Department INC. also tied with Mission Fire District One now part of NE Consolidated Fire District Two.



In 1969 this unit had a 54ft Squirt boom installed and this photo was taken in 1969 just before leaving for the conversion in St. Joesph, Missouri at Snorkel. This Squirt ran until 1989 as reserve engine for Mission after the consolidation in late 1989 it was give to the Mission Volunteers who placed it up for sale in 1990 and was sold to a department in Arizona. On the trip to Arizona it threw a rod in the motor and was rejected and I believe sold for scrap.
