I found the final resting place for what was left of the truck.  It was just a cab on another chassis.  I'm heart broken.  My dad's truck is gone.

Update.  The truck was sold to Flovilla Fire Department in Georgia.  It is supposed to be in Jacksonville, Florida now.  Someone from Flovilla is looking for the present owner.  One owner was Kenny Floyd in Ga.   If anybody can get on Florida's DMV that would be great.

Here's the fire truck I literally grew up with.  My father was a full time FFer at the Turn of River Fire Department in Stamford, Ct.  I'm looking for it.  1957 Mack B85F chassis # 1254

I'm looking for this fire truck that was converted to a tanker.  1957 Mack B85F chassis # 1254.  It started out new at the Turn of River Fire Department in Stamford, Ct.  They sold it in 1977 and have no idea to whom.  Oh, it's Red. ;-)

In 1957 the Turn of River Fire Department, in Stamford, Connecticut, bought a Mack B85F pumper, chassis number 1254. I was 6 years old and my father was a full time fireman. I practically lived in the firehouse. I can still remember the smells. I still have my fathers jacket, helmet and boots.

The truck was latter converted to a tanker and sold in the '70's. No one in the department can remember were it went. Some say New Hampshire and others say down south. I would love to buy the truck and restore it. I would appreciate any help I can get.

Thank you,

Jack
