Aside from the generator anyone know if it carry any other equipment? Definitely beats towing a trailer.

For and early 90's (?) Ford, it looks to be in good shape. Especially since it served and ran alot in Greenville and Fairview.

Is the work being done by the Greenburgh DPW shops?

Yes. The Greenburgh DPW shops has an extensive fleet program and very skilled mechanics, including auto/truck body repairs and a paint booth big enough for trucks.

I'm not sure why they didn't leave Rescue 29 put together?

Here's the OLD unit together in 2004:

Here's the chasis the body was removed from:

And here is Greenville's old Rescue 29 body, removed from the light trucks old chasis above. They have a chasis somewhere in their fleet they will be using for this.
