  This is actually a 1982 model. 1000/500. There were 3 almost identical Spartan Darley. 1979, 1982, and 1986. Engines 205, 206 & 207. A forth Spartan Darley came in 1994 but was a much different design and also a 1500/500. That was sold to Chicago heights. I’m pretty sure this (206) went to hazmat. If not this one it was 207. 206 and 207 had the closet features. Not many changes in cab specs during those years

  This was one of 2 I believe. I know one of them ended up as the Mabas 24 hazmat vehicle for a little bit but I don’t remember which one it was
