Ford C/F.M.C.

Good evening sir,
This particular engine could also go in the "Once Is Not Enough" thread.  This engine originated from Douglas County Fire Department, Ga, possibly assigned to Station 3 Bill Arp community.  Dallas Volunteer Fire Department once had a 1958 Ford ALF, but that engine was totaled in a rollover crash around the year 1993.  DVFD purchased this Ford FMC from Douglas County to replace the '58 LaFrance.

Thanks for the info, I did not know the origin. By chance, do you know what year that Ford/FMC was built?

Hanover Co, VA Henry VFD Tanker 6. Going off memory, but believed to be a 1982 Ford C/Grumman. Not sure if 750 or 1000 GPM, but it had a 1000 Gal tank. It was run as a second out Engine more often than not. *Credit to photographer*

The Ford C/FMC was a 1976 if memory serves me correct.
