1944 International Brush Truck Refurb

[firedude 985]

I wanted to share some of my pictures of Wilton, NY’s 1944 International. Currently serving the WVFD as a brush truck, it was originally a crash truck for the U.S. military before being bought by the FD in 1948. It recently came back from being refurbished and is back as a frontline piece. It holds 500gal of water and some other forestry gear.

Front line? I wouldn't take this out of the fire house. It looks great.

I have the same opinion. Looks way too good to ba taking into the woods to get scratched up.

I agree. However, It's not first due to brush fires. This rig is first due to brush calls, then the tanker:

Well, they like it and it gets the job done, so why complain?

not complaining, just a beautiful piece of apparatus that's all
