Apparently this one is another prototype for Sutphen which was "never meant to be sold." Only two of them were ever made, and both of them were apparently sold somehow to the Norwich Twp FD of Hilliard, Ohio. Belmont bought this one used a few years ago and the Sutphen Corporation bought the other one back from Norwich Twp. Instead of levers on the pump panel, it was all switches which operate air-actuated valves on the discharges and the pump. This is all info from the guys at the FD that pulled the rigs out for us.
