1974 Chevrolet Step Van Shop #3379
Squad 1 was a salvage company, however the function of the unit evolved into a manpower squad. They responded to most working fires in the city by the 1970's. This apparatus was the last piece used by Squad 1 as they were disbanded on January 3, 1975.

Notice the hip boats, blue jean jacket, and cannister mask. All the firefighting attire that was needed back in the day.
