Michael M. you are correct about that compartment.

What is the compartment in front of the pump module going to be used for? Looks like it has. Slide out try. My guess, SCBA and other gear for a clean cab.

That front section (pump module) will be painted. Bumper will also be wrapped in chevrons so those plates by the airhorns will be less conspicuous. Those plates are due to a change order by PH to make the bumper compartment deeper and the compartment lid lower.

Looks great!
Will the front section of the body be painted?
I don’t like how plates were installed to block off the original location of the air horn. Seems like an oversite in the original design.
