Wow!  That's cool!  Hard to believe it is a '79.  Looks much more modern than that, but then I guess fire truck design can't go to a jelly bean like all the new cars.

I dig it. That C-series was one of the longest running commercial truck designs. I remember when they were common...I was only a kid, but my father's friend drove one delivering propane.
