New Zealand Fargo - DV3452
This 1943 Fargo was originally built by the Colonial Motor Company. Serving the Christchurch fire brigade, this initially was a combination unit before being modified to carry an escape and finally being converted into a hoselayer. This appliance is now part of the Ferrymead Museum collection.

There are obviously some very competent body builders in New Zealand; this job integrates the truck cab so well with the rear bodywork, and the rear side access reminds me of the contemporary NFS Escape Carriers in the UK.
