Default Did you know...

That when Newburg got the new tanker it actually replace a running cab 12, no roof, C15a water tanker for rural fires. The tank was under construction at the time with only the side piece installed.

The cab 12 was up for sale in Auto trader. I went down to look at it and actually drove it in the village street....... and missed a down shift going up a hill.

The lucky bidder was Mel N. from Oshawa and his CMP water truck is usually on display at the Oshawa event now fully restored.

One of the firemen took me to his house where he had a new set of six 9x16 Michelin tires mounted on Steyr rims.....which I acquired but not used yet. Tires had been sold as surplus after a reverse engineering project got canned.

Small world is it not .....

Cheers
