In 1994, this rig started out with a 1994 Chevy chassis mated to the open 1994 Astoria body w/ the skid unit in it. It ran at
that time as a rescue/brush truck. In 1997 they bought a new chassis, put a top on the old body and made it strictly a rescue.
The department then had a new body made for the 1994 chassis and skid and made it a brush as shown below.
