If you want something with no emission problems, I think my town is replacing a ladder truck next year. It's a 10-wheel Autocar, I think a 1965, with a 12V71 Detroit, a 13-speed Road Ranger, and manual steering. That fire-breathing Jimmy will haul the 30-ton truck up hills with the cars. At full power and 2400RPM, the unmuffled 5" stacks drown out the siren, and the truck makes more smoke than the fire. :D
When will it go to auction? Might be a good candidate for conversion. Even if you run CNG, you still need diesel (5%).
