New to the Dunedin area this 1966 Carmichael FT6 also served the Outram volunteer brigade. The brigade found the appliance rotting away and purchased it and have very nearly finished an extensive restoration. I was lucky to have access to photograph the appliance in October 2013.

They appear to be making an excellent job of this restoration.

It may be relatively unique in that while it was in service at Outram it was repowered with a Holden motor and was also fitted with an automatic gearbox all of which are still in place.
