This 1994 Ford Super Duty/Reading is sitting at a shop in Winchester, VA. I suspect it will either be sold or turned into a work truck.



It once ran as Crash 1 for the Manassas, Virginia Volunteer Rescue Squad.

And before Natural Bridge, Virginia it was originally ordered by Springfield, Virginia in Fairfax County. Springfield donated the E\-One Hush to Natural Bridge.



Photographed by me back in July 1990.

This old Studebaker, which is lettered for the Earlville FD, is sitting just of US Route 522 in Louisa County, Virginia. It's behind a locked fence/gate, so I had to use the zoom lens and couldn't get any details off of it.

Mike,



Word from anyone on why they got rid of this? I am pretty certain it was not replaced by another rig, for the few times I've been by the station nothing else was seen in its place.

Found this old beauty parked at Valley Hills, NC's old fire station, which is now a repair garage. From what I could see, this truck had an NC Inspection Sticker on the windshield with the year cut out on it. It's from a VFD in NC who's name starts with "N", maybe has a "D" in the name, and it's no more than about 6-8 letters long. The passenger side still had "V.F.D." visible on the doors. The name of the FD was painted on the compartment doors down the body. Does anyone have any idea?

Roadhouse.. The owner chopped that thing up, and added a section of it to a heavy duty wrecker. He also owns an old heavy rescue from the Mildred Fire Co., a '74 GMC from Rockledge, Pa.
