This weeks ROTW goes to an old 1969 firetruck that was customized and converted into one heck of a beautiful truck.

Obviously, your not a fire buff. Did it have a pump and a booster tank
We owned a 55 Peter Pirsch open cab pumper. It had a 1000 gpm pump and 35 years of history with the Waukesha Fire Dept. It stood tall and proud whenever it was on the road or display. |

Or was that more rhetorical and you're asking because you're saddened that a truck like that was modded and converted? Stewart |

Great Job Your truck is beautiful and really a head turner.Should win many 1st of show with it.

I would have restored it as an emergency vehicle fully equipped.
I owned a Peter Pirsch open cab pumper with a 1000 gpm pump, booster tank and all of the equipment as it was in service. That's a truck with a purpose. |
Very neat!
