The process of restoration and upgrading of the 1958 Crown is continuing. (Note the LED turn signals and red spots). Much to his dismay, William says that he discovered the pump was cracked and the pump transmission was missing. He located a 1000 gpm Waterous pump, and says "I actually had one whole side of the truck off trying to put another pump in. I couldn't get the drive shaft angles to work-out between the engine, pump and rear axle. I guess that's the reason the transfer case was removed. I think they messed something up during the re-power. The pump casting got cracked when it failed." In the end, he decided to remove the tank and the pump. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832767679-7HV26406LCOJPLRG74HK/9.jpg Apparatus Feature The captain's side of F116 in June, 2010. The cab enclosure was removed and the rig was returned to its original open-cab configuration. Owner William Vedra says "I wish I'd had a Crown close by to look at. More rust than expected required new cab sides, inside fender well, jump seat, hood side, rear step and body beaver-tail sides. I did some tactical engineering, and made the cab sides myself. I calculated the radius from some pictures." William hopes to paint the rig some time this year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832768400-OC270WIGJLOIWLVQVU9F/10.jpg Apparatus Feature F1116 shown for sale by a used truck dealer in California in 2006. The rig was purchased by CFE member William Vedra, Jr., who had it trucked to his home in Ohio. It arrived in Columbus in the summer of 2006, where it is currently undergoing restoration. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832768531-PDVOS6DICVSZ6SS4S75W/11.jpg Apparatus Feature F1116 is a 1958 Crown, one of four identical 1000 gpm pumpers delivered to Santa Barbara California that year. This photos shows sister rig F1113, which like F1116 was repowered to diesel and had the cab enclosed. According to manufacturer's tag on F1116, it received a refurbishment in 1980 at Crown Coach in Los Angeles. That refurb included a conversion from the 590 Hall Scott to a 6-71 Detroit and a Fuller TO-905A overdrive transmission. That is also when the cab was also enclosed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832769506-YHXY0L0UMQRXMWJJAI75/12.jpg Apparatus Feature Here is F1116 sitting behind a fence at Alan Hancock College in Santa Maria, CA in a photo snapped by CFE member Don Pogue in January 2004. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832769509-9AHGT3P4RLNB49NSECLQ/13.jpg Apparatus Feature A rear view of F1116 at Alan Hancock College in Santa Maria, CA in January 2004. After it was decommissioned by the Santa Barbara Fire Department, the rig was donated by the city to the fire academy at the college which used it for several years as a training apparatus. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832770067-1N2D6YME6N9KT64HUJH9/14.jpg Apparatus Feature July, 2009 photo of F1116 showing body work underway, with the cab still enclosed. Rust was slight to moderate on the rear tail board and back wall, cab sides over the wheels, passenger side wheel liner and the bottom of a couple compartments. All panels, doors and brackets were cleaned to bare metal and primered as was the cab interior, body and running boards.The air brakes were completely overhauled, including new plastic air lines, valves, chambers, slack adjusters, brake linings and drums turned. A Bendix AD-9 air dryer was also installed. William says "One of the rear hubs was cracked from an incorrect installation some time during its life. Apparently, Timken and Rockwell were interchangeable at that time, because the Timken axle had hubs with Rockwell casting numbers. Rockwell still has the castings, but the $1500 cost made me find an alternative. I found a machine shop that welded the crack and machined the inside seal surface." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832770268-7PGWA3WU9ZOKU87A6ETS/15.jpg Apparatus Feature June 2010 shot of the restored cab interior of F1116. During the restoration, all wiring was removed and a new wiring harness made. There was some re-engineering that had to be done as far as the circuit brakers. This included 60-plus feet of new battery cable. New 8D batteries were also installed. William adds "So far I've completely rewired, replaced the Garrison power steering system, air-lines, the complete brake system, and rear axle gears." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832770576-DUXUH6WUQQN8K0KYN44Z/16.jpg Apparatus Feature All removeable panels, doors and brackets were removed, cleaned to bare metal and primered, as shown in this July, 2009 photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832770990-0MV097T40J4GR66A4Z4R/17.jpg Apparatus Feature Some of the fenders and other parts were cleaned to bare metal and primered, as shown in this July, 2009 photo. A couple of pieces were missing and had to fabricated, including a jump seat base, jump seat backrest frame and a battery hold-down frame. William says he found a great metal fabrication shop that will reproduce about anything and is resonable. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832771233-3V0HJRGGA76FHZU1N4UO/18.jpg Apparatus Feature The 6-71 Detroit shown up and running in this June, 2010 photo of F1116 being restored by CFE member William Vedra, Jr. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568832771656-JPCF1GJEFHF3CJD89COW/19.jpg Apparatus Feature F1116 is a 1958 Crown, one of four identical 1000 gpm pumpers delivered to Santa Barbara California that year.

He recently asked if I could dig up some background information and photos of his rigs, and this 1955 Crown proved to have quite an interesting story. It was one of two identical pumpers delivered in 1956 to Montebello, CA, who assigned it as Engine 2 (later known as E52). Of all the fire apparatus paint schemes that have been used, Montebello tried one of the most unusual experimental ones on this rig when they painted the cab in red and white “zebra stripes.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833388825-EO9NNEJKHOOT1CQX5RXT/2-F1048_Montebello-refurb-M.jpg Apparatus Feature Eventually the rig had its dignity restored when it was refurbished and repainted standard red. At that time, the hard suction trays were removed and additional storage compartments were added on the left side. Also, two electronic siren speakers were mounted into the cab front (L.A. City FD style). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833389914-P2A8NJA1RFZZGRVCY8GR/3-F1048_Seal_Beach-E14-M.jpg Apparatus Feature In the late 1970s, F1048 was purchased by Seal Beach, CA. At that time, Seal Beach already owned a Crown pumper and a Crown Snorkel and the Chief decided to purchase three used Crowns to replace and upgrade their paid call and reserve rigs. It indeed was a good deal for the money because the Crowns outlasted both that Chief and that department. The rig now had an extended front bumper and a front suction, part of a pump upgrade. The original yellow fog lamps in the high-beam position were replaced with the small Perlux fog lamps. A lightbar was added to the roof, side window panels were added next to the jump seats and chrome grab bars were added just behind each door. The original hose reels were replaced with shorter ones to make room for a transverse hose bed and larger aluminum kick-plates were installed beneath the cab doors and by the jump seats. A battery-charger, hot-start, and DC jacks were also added beneath the front door. For most of its few years with Seal Beach FD, F1048 ran as Engine 4 (8104 and then SE14) staffed by paid call firefighters (PCF). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833390034-CQ5QGNOJPPTRP4NETMI7/4-F1048_ORC5142_TRG-M.jpg Apparatus Feature In 1982, Seal Beach disbanded its fire department and contracted services from the County of Orange. The city's small fleet of Crowns then became part of the Orange County Fire Department (today known as the Orange County Fire Authority). When assigned shop number 5142, F1048 was renumbered ORC E244 but continued to be a PCF engine at the downtown station. In 1988, it was sent for a complete engine re-power and refurbishment which took it out of service for several months. F1048 then became Engine 11 for the county's PCF crew at the Emerald Bay station in north Laguna Beach. Now running with a Detroit Diesel 6V92, an automatic transmission and a new pump, the fog lamps were changed back to highbeam headlights, the lightbar was changed to one with alley lights, and the red Unity spotlights were removed from each side of the windshield. To reduce cab noise, the electronic siren speakers were removed from the cab nose and mounted on the front bumper. Weldon truck taillight assemblies were used to fill the holes left by the speakers, which also served to replace the red Unity spotlights and make the forward reds more visible to motorists ahead of the rig. Combo red/white strobes were also added to each side of the cab, just ahead of the doors. To dress the rig up, aluminum wheel covers were added. After a few years, F1048 was assigned to the reserve pool and at one point there was talk of removing the tank and converting it to a hose wagon, but another Crown was chosen for that fate. Instead, in 1993 the rig was assigned to training for the south county ROP and permanently removed from the in-service fleet. As a result, no more modifications or improvements were made to the rig and it was one of the last Crowns to be surplused by the Orange County Fire Authority. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833390403-20FP85CM741Z561KXD12/5-F1048_Art-Thompson-M.jpg Apparatus Feature In 2005, F1048 went to Porter Auction Company in Torrance, CA where it was purchased by Barstow Truck Parts and Equipment. At that time, Art Thompson, owner of Tom-Son Tank Lines, was looking for a Crown to buy and donate to a church camp in the San Bernardino Mountains for their fire protection. He had decided on a Crown after seeing them at the ATHS truck convention in Fontana, CA and consulting with his friend, CFE member Mike McDonald. After choosing a 1965 ex- Orange County Crown for that purpose (F1411, formerly owned by CFE member John Winkler), Art decided these old Crown fire engines are pretty nice pieces of equipment and went back to Barstow Truck and bought F1048 to keep for himself. That's not the end of Art's Crown story, but it is the end of this article! Another Crown saved thanks to a sequence of events which put it in the hands of a CFE member! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834048966-4KMJRR2KFWIJ36J1LXHW/F1730_Frontleft.jpg Apparatus Feature After 31 years serving the California beach town of Carmel, here is new Tampa, Florida resident, Crown S/N F1730, a 1975 Firecoach with a 50-foot Telsqurt, staged on the apron of the Oldsmar, FL, Fire Department. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834415067-S9DUDKWKPWHYZ4OH2LAD/F1730-flatbeded_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834111578-EB82CC1QPJJSQGUG6J65/F1730-Auction-RR_s.jpg Apparatus Feature S/N F1730 at Nationwide Auction Co. in Benecia, CA in December, 2006. The red lights have been taped but a lot of equipment, ladders, Federal-Q siren, as well as all the FD markings, were left on the rig. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834194068-7GKIS8HT23V6GY1BFGAW/F1730-AuctionFR_s.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834621778-BRF07RRAT24G2JR2OCOJ/F1730-masterstreamrear_S.jpg Apparatus Feature Frank's Crown with his friend's 1972 Mack CF pumper. Frank says "Both ran and pumped great and so we flushed the Crown out good. Then Jimmy ran his Mack to the hydrant, then his Mack to the Squirt. We ran his deluge gun and the water cannon off the Squirt and both performed very well." https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834635858-G02GCQ9FN5IOBJ23820Z/F1730-stickup_Mack_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568834605645-TDJJ430JSRUXH1215AZ0/F1730-ladderpipestream_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833858593-JYTXG4002QWM8S89KOPM/F1730_Frontleft.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833858530-9XMLLDX9JR2VX3SGZLDI/F1730-Auction-RR_s.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833858951-0UQ704SJVSBQK863E07V/F1730-AuctionFR_s.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833858969-1USV89DRY0PA83KVIIAQ/F1730-flatbeded_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833859371-B5MMN8WGM3X6VHU45IRD/F1730-front_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833859414-DPLO25SN9S0MK6IZQUO2/F1730-ladderpipestream_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833859966-W1XJNBVAX9FS5DLI1EZ0/F1730-masterstreamrear_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1568833860156-BJB3KZMZAUREI2BKDMEC/F1730-stickup_Mack_S.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1586991573217-RGV9KU6R745N1TQT33DW/RED-T261_1996MBweb.jpg Apparatus Feature https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d72d85ad9405f3ebcc3ce62/1586991736440-2FP3EJ0EWKQIE2QWAVRK/RED_T751-1975-web2.jpg Apparatus Feature Standing on the turntable of the new Crown aerial truck is then Redlands Fire Chief Joe Budd and possibly the Crown salesman. Standing behind the cab is firefighter Tom Boburt. (Photo courtesy of California Fire Museum) Compare the 1975 appearance of the truck to the 1996 photo above. In the late 1970s, the original front wheels were replaced with the wider diameter wheels to provide more stability and better weight distribution. The original rounded Federal Beaconray "Superbeacon" lights on top of the cab had four lamps per light and oscillated back and forth. In the early 80s, the truck was working at a major packing house fire and the radiant heat melted the lenses and damaged the mechanism beyond repair. The original "gumball" style rounded lights were replaced by the ones seen on the cab today. Like the originals, these have an oscillating pattern.
