That's a sharp little rescue made from what looks to be a commercial Reading-style body - very cool.



Thanks for the great pics....Keep the rescues coming!

If my mind is working correctly this evening, this unit was a motor squad built up unit consisting of the original beverage body (from a donated vehicle), and a modified Ford C/Sutphen pumper. Im unsure what the body chassis was tho, maybe someone can help out with that. One of the rare things that the shop built in later years. TJ
