This from Mike Summa:
Hello,This is from the Dixmoor Fire Department. It is a 1953 Chevy/DARLEY 500-GPM panel truck. The booster inside is 200 feet of 1 1/2 inch hose. I guess for it’s time, this was state-of-the-art and fit the requirements of this department. Hope you enjoy,Mike S.

It is still there. Mike do you have a photo on the truck in the back ground?

A couple years ago this was still sitting in their public works yard. Not sure if it’s still there.
