Excellent job Ed. I worked in a rig just like this one at Schenectady (NY) Ambulance Service (1978).decided it was time to drive this one down to the parts house. she is getting close to going home.
One of twins* for Geary Co. EMS (Junction City, KS). Later sold to Miltonvale, KS; they traded it in to Stratus Specialty Vehicles in Kansas City, MO. That's where I took the first photo in your post. Stratus sold it to a private service in Chattanooga as a public relations vehicle. From there it ended up in FL and then in Nick's hands.Originally purchased by the the city of Junction City, Kansas. Then saw duty in both Kansas City Mo., and Chattanooga Tn.
This is a pic from 2014, when Nick Studer rescued it. Red/white originally, it was changed with the restoration to copy one of the cars used in the 1970 dealer brochure.
Nick can add some comments on the early restoration process.
Ed tackled this mammoth job, and the result is truly amazing.
Unfortunately I live at the other end of the continent from the upcoming PCS annual meet, so will not make there.
One more lives on.
The pictures say it all.
Amazing job Ed. Thank you
