My understanding is that Valley Stream's Rescue was a Gerstenslager.

A FANTASTIC Black and White photo.  The Manhattan buildings including the trade center frame this perfectly.

Back East over the county line.  Elmont Rescue.  Now that's when fire trucks were fire trucks.  I don't need to tell you guys that though.

Chief what ever happened to the Young Crusader snorkel? I know Andy tried to rescue it from the junk yard it was in several years back but was not getting anywhere with them, and I never heard what the outcome was.

Unfortunately the last I heard is the truck was scrapped for metal.  It's a shame not to many Young Crusader cabs built.  Here is a few pics of it in better days.
