1932 Nash Series 990 Ambulance

This Nash epitomized classic-era elegance with its stained glass quarter windows and hickory spoke artillery wheels. It was originally built by the renowned A.J. Miller Co. of Bellefontaine, OH.

Originally commissioned by a funeral home in Port Jefferson, NY, at a then-staggering cost of nearly $4,800, the wheelbase of its top-of-the-line 990 series Ambassador chassis was extended to just over 13 feet. It was powered by an overhead valve 298ci 115hp “straight-eight” twin ignition engine.

The one-off rig subsequently served a succession of Long Island fire departments until the early 1960s. The vehicle is equipped with a vintage emergency kit, a hand-pumped Pyrene fire extinguisher on the driv­er’s side running-board, and a cowl-mounted warning bell that rings several times with a single pull of the cord.

The radio was originally a one-way unit that was incoming-only. If you got a call, you had to pull over and use a pay phone to respond. It has a single side mount spare with a leather strapped mirror. It shows just 46,449 miles which are believed to be the actual miles.

Notre Dame: One fireman severely injured

As sad as the loss of a historical side like Notre Dame is, what counts most, in the end, are the human lives saved. Until now there was no loss of human life, but ten minutes ago it was reported that one French fireman was severely injured. Firemen enter the cathedral to save artifacts and they are facing a “rain of fluid hot lead (plumb)”.It was said, that “this is extremely dangerous for the firefighters right now”. Please pray, send good vibes/thoughts (or whatever your way of doing this is) for the firefighters, police officers and all people who are working to help there right now.
