As seen around … Evergreen Park

This from Wayne VanBeveren:

I’ve attached a couple photos of a mini-pumper I found at 87th and Western in Evergreen Park. It’s a Pierce on a Ford Ranger chassis. I don’t anything else about it. It does look like someone refurbished the bench seat inside with a “CFD” scramble and it has a sticker on the dash that says “Engine 1 for radio communication. The officer’s side of the pump panel looks like it used to say “JRV.”
