Not sure when it’s career as a fire truck ended, but that’s what it spent most of its life doing, I think in a small town Mono City California. Seems it could have been one of the first type 3 fire trucks. It’s in great shape with only around 45K on the odometer, but cable is broken so not sure how much it actually has. Otherwise it’s in fantastic shape for its age, and being in a dry climate all of its life. The biggest crime was when, some years ago, when it needed repainting they used red bed liner of sorts. Any advice on how to get rid of that would be greatly appreciated!

So hopefully I can be part of your group and thanks in advance!

Mike
Welcome to the forum, Mike! You've got an awesome truck there! We'll help you as much as we can, given the fact that most of us have the much more common 1/2, 3/4, and 1 ton trucks.

If you tell us what parts you're looking for, hopefully someone on the forum will be able to help.

Good luck with your project, and keep the photos coming.
