Re: Athearn announces another 1/87 scale Ford C pumper

Our department had a 1976 "C" Ford with ALF body. I was a stick shift, with a driver's seat adjustable fore-aft only. The other cab seat was fixed and seated two, although it seldom ran with more than the driver. We also had a Ford "C" canopy cab FMC. It was our first automatic diesel with a Cat 3208T, very dependable. Now operated by a volunteer dept south of us.
I started out my vol ff career in Allegheny Co, PA in 1968 riding the tailboard of a 900 series ALF. We had a strap to hang onto, but that was the extent of the "safety features". Riding the tailboard sure woke you up in a hurry on a cold winter's nite!
