That same King-Seagrave body was also used to convert CMPs. There are a few minor differences in equipment, but mine looks almost identical. Oddly enough, mine also came from the town of Amherstburg. They acquired it from Base Borden and used it as their brush fire truck.

One nice thing about fire trucks is that they tend to remain in active service and get carefully maintained longer than other trucks. By the time Amherstburg was done with it, it was already a collector's item and became the Kingsville (also Ontario) Fire Department's parade vehicle. It never went through that period when it was just a worn out truck sitting in a field rusting for decades.

Rob,

In this film from Picton in 1963, the fire truck drives by at the 9.44 mark of the video:
