Oh Doctor, where would we be without your humour! It's photos of this quality and subject matter that make this site so valuable to the true enthusiasts and researchers, or those who just like like to look at fire engines!

Tim, its an RAF mk9, you can just make out Dennis on the front crash bar. What an ending for a great!

Didn't these machines get reworked by Dennis to extend their service life? I didn't think Dennis did the original firefighting body. But I could be wrong!

Aaagh - sad sight.

Makes you appreciate the "Saved" photos here, all the more.

Is there a photo of similar Dennis Crash Truck about - in more healthier days ?
And what Dennis Mark [not RAF], would this most resemble ?

Tim, Dennis did the first made and any updating, they were truly put together well, first entering service in the mid seventies and going on up until two years ago.
Pat, its a Nubian Major in civilian speak!
