Notes on the photograph saw this was from Maryland but I checked Brunswick's web site, and this truck was not listed.
Any ideas?[/quote]
Well Frank, it's listed in their history section... An interesting anecdote about this rig is that it was paid for by a concert given by country star (and future sausage maker) Jimmy Dean. (from the book: Firefighting in Frederick County)
It was a 750/500, sold for $500 in mid-80's, body scrapped and chassis used for hauling wood.
Here's a J.Floyd photo I've posted before of it in 1983 after it was slimed.
Another photo of this appears in Fred Crismon's 'Fire Engines' book.
