If my memory is correct this is the old River Oaks FD 1302. It was bought by an uncle of my first wife who also was in the Swink VFD in Swink Ok. When it belonged to the ROFD someone had swapped letters around on the front from F-O-R-D to R-O-F-D. If this is the old 1302 then it’s a 1963 Boardman Pumper. I drove this truck many times. You had to know how to double clutch or the stick shift would slap your knuckles against the dash.

Gary, For some reason I am seeing this comment from such a long time ago. I'm sorry that I'm just now seeing it. It's so awesome that you know this truck. I was on a road trip one day and I loved the way this truck looked all stoic and used at the same time. To me, it looked like that truck has some good stories to tell. Thanks so much for the info on it! I hope you enjoyed seeing it!
