I thought at one time Dennis Meehan had a 4 dr cab for sale?  Been quite awhile ago.  He has one turned into a pickup truck.

I didn’t think that one was a factory 4 door, the picture I have is supposedly a factory 4 door.

Who needs a back yard when you could have a :mack1: Yard?!

Does look odd, could be homemade with the suicide doors.  Though i do remember him having a real 4 dr cab at one time.

Any pictures of the real 4 door? I think the giveaway that one is homemade is the roof and rear of the cab looking so stuck on and out of place, in my opinion atleast...

The green truck was built as a two door with the back seat being entered through and aisle in the hose bed.  

I always thought those style trucks were interesting but never wanted one for anything but a nice truck to maybe turn into an easy camper firetruck. A CF rescue would also work for that with much more room though...

That one has a 707 gas motor in it! It's a wonder these cabs weren't used on a few firetrucks. There were 4 door B cabs for firetrucks but they had a big space in the middle for the water pump. Now this truck has sparked my interest even more. I wonder if any L cabs were built like this instead of the fire 3 and 4 doors...

Too weird for me but it is very interesting and yes I would guess fire apparatus.. bob

As far as I know these 4 doors were all tractors, I believe for farm work. Could be wrong about that but I was under the impression none of these versions of the 4 door B cab were used on firetrucks. The firetruck 4 doors have a big space in the middle of the doors for the fire pump and an extra window above it. Like this...
