1975 Chevy/1995 Bruco pumper-rescue

This rig is supposedly the last known Bruco fire truck project. A 1975 Chevy C-65 tanker chassis was combined with a new stainless body w/roll-up doors and a crew compartment along with a 500/400 capacity,making an inexpensive rescue pumper. After serving 10 years at Martinsburg VFD, it was sold to a nearby vfd which rechassied it on a new International chassis.

Great example of how underfunded small volunteer departments could get their hands on very functional apparatus at a modest cost.
