New to the forums, but I have been collecting Code 3 apparatus throughout my 8 years in the fire service now. Had an idea on an interesting truck for you guys. One of the stations I run with is soon to be purchasing a new truck. The existing one is my focus here. It's a 1970 something (maybe 76) Simon LTI 103' snorkel. From what I understand, there were only several of these made on a Young chassis in this low profile configuration. I'll be sad to see her go, she broke me into truck work. What does everyone think? Sorry for the quality of the pic, I'll try and get a better one if there is interest.

very nice looking older rig I think it would be something different, other than the Chicago squads I don't recall any other snorkels being done by Code3

I think it would be cool to see code 3 do an old school snorkel. But I would personally rather see one of the older Chicago 85' snorkels.

Although an interesting apparatus,it is something that may never be done,simply because there is no mold for that chassis and the price to acquire licensing rights for the Apparatus manufact., Snorkel and city, not to mention the artist to produce the prototype mold....Never hurts to dream though...
