This from Mike Summa for #TBT:
For TBT- Two fire departments side by side who have/had the same type of equipment. Oak Forest Engine 94, a 1971 FWD/Pierce 1250/500 w/54′ Squrt. Midlothian Engine 2, a 1973 Seagrave 1250/300 w/ 54′ Squrt. The Oak Forest engine is gone, but Midlothian had Pierce rehab their unit in 1994 with a Pierce Arrow cab and upgrade its engine into 1500/500. Are there any more Squrts out there?Mike Summa

This was Oak Forest Engine 91, a 1973 FWD/Pierce 1250/750. Built on FWD’s 4 wheel drive “Tractioneer” chassis. On a side note, all Oak Forest apparatus purchased in the 1970’s had manual transmission.Enjoy and comment. Mike Summa
