The driver at Eastside said they only paid $60,000 and did most if not all of the refurb work in-house. Not a bad deal for a 600 call a year dept, a $800,000+ new rig for $60,000! Not sure they really need something that big, but they sure were proud of all of the blood, sweat & tears put into it.

Northern Cambria, PA (Hope Fire Co.) had two Amerteks and the one they wrecked in 2004 was a 1990 model (radio identifier was CFR 504). I believe the other one they had (CFR 501) which was sold in 02 or 03 was near identical to it. I know 504 had the same strobes below the windshield and roof turret like the photo above. Hopefully someone from PA can advise.
Thanks for the info Adam. Hopefully someone can confirm this.

What's Elizabeth doing for a reserve now, I thought this was it?
