Billy,



I am pretty sure it is the following rig. You can see the year and tank are not a match. It looks like it has been modified at sometime (hosebed is higher) - which too me would go along with the larger tank. This is the info i have on this - from Al Powell's files. I don't think Moon Lake is a valid FC anymore - part of Pasco County now, so it might fit in. Anyway confirming the year and where they got it from ?



Many thanks,



Bruce
