Quote:The Herbertsville FC of Brick Township, NJ ran this 1965 Ford C/Bean pumper. Engine # 2417 had a hp pump and a 1000 gallon water tank. The bodywork on this one doesn't look like Bean bodywork, even though it has a Bean High Pressure pump. It has a close resemblence to the Bruco pumper in the next post. My guess is that Bruco built this one with a Bean pump. Maybe one of our Bean or Bruco experts can tell us if they know of Bruco ever doing this.

It looks like a Bean pump and reels was transplanted into the Bruco bodywork, but I cannot say for sure if Bruco did it. Also, the Chevy chassis in post#1469 would have been a 67-72 model.
