bought new in 1926 and still owned by the dept. 1926 type 75 American LaFrance.
This truck was restored about 13 years ago by a few guys that work here.I just got through putting the motor back together and working on the brakes a few weeks ago. We had a couple of cylinder jugs rust out from the inside and had to buy another motor for parts. I have the original maintenance book for the truck and quite a few parts so if there is anything I can help with let me know and I'll try.
