TBT-Crete Fire Dept.’s #702, a 1970’s IHC/Pierce ( unknown specs.) I found this interesting because it was not built on a Dodge chassis.Mike Summa

Hello,This is the Crete Fire Department’s 1949 Ward LaFrance. I do not know the specs of it. It’s a very rare manufacture in the Chicago area but Crete seemed to favor it. Enjoy and feel free to comment.Thank you,Mike S.
