Showman's engine

Whitley Bay 14 August 1982

The Fire Brigade were out in force. Minutes earlier, another engine had come down this way on priorities. This one cruised sedately down the street, then came back travelling just as sedately back. I almost expected someone to lean out of the cab and shout "where's the fire?"

Santa Clara County Fire Department responded to a fire alarm in Morgan hill on Valentine's Day to discover a 20,000 square foot building with heavy smoke showing. A second alarm was struck and units from County Fire, South Santa Clara County Fire, Gilroy Fire and San Jose Fire assisted in handling a blaze complicated by the chemicals used in the facility. Chemicals used to manufactuer composite materials mixed and the results caused a major hazmat incident. About four hours after it start the incident was over.

 

Santa Clara County Fire Department Engine 12 is a 2009 KME built 1250 GPM pumper.

I took this picture as this would be the last time I would see Engine-Ear Toys. On July 31, 2011, this store closed as Disney California Adventure prepares for the new Buena Vista Street stores. This area will now be closed for a year.

June 1988.

As I was out on the drive and had the bonnet side off I grabbed a photo of the engine as I still get quite excited about how it looks with the curvy intake piping (even though no one will ever see it).

 

I really need to sort out that rats nest of connectors for the lighting wiring at some point in the future

Carb's off, one valve cover's off, and the smog pump's out.

 

Right now, it's waiting for the new carb's throttle linkage, some modifications to the new valve covers (the rockers hit) and the set screws to plug the air injection holes.
