Wow! Awesome photo! That must have been a very impressive state of the art truck when it was delivered! Does that truck still exist somewhere?

Funny, the bay looks exactly the same as the one Ladder 1 is currently squeezed into.

Currently a new garage is being built for storage of the '39 AF Quad. The truck needs a tremendous amount of restoration work.

Below is the pump testing certification dated October 25 , 1939.
