Ah yes, the 20cwt QF 3 inch. A WW1 era design .

This fire pump is seen in Footscray , a inner Western suburb of Melbourne . The pump looks like one of the GM-H built pumps, it has Chevrolet wheels and hubs fitted . The engine in these pumps may have been a Ford 10. Update: the engine is a 4 cyl. Side valve.
