  If I remember correctly; it was delivered in late 1997, Cummins N14, Allison 5 speed auto trans, engine brake, 1750gpm Hale single stage pump, 500gal tank, 2 1-3/4″ crosslays, 1 2-1/2″ crosslay, 5″ rear hosebed (I don’t remember how much), PTO electric generator, electric driven Amkus pump, pinnable pre-piped waterway. It was originally an all red cab and only a white stripe. The black cab top & black accent stripes were added in 1999 or 2000. One 1-3/4″ crosslay & a hosebed divider were removed to accommodate a makeshift skidload.

  If I had to guess, probably 1990’s to early ‘00’s vintage. Like that stripe.
