Built in 1972, this FMC John Bean demonstration unit was purchased in 1973 at a cost of $36,500, a deal from the orignal $41,000 price tag, and was put up for sale in 1999.
Following the 1988 engine's crash, "Casper" was re-equipped and put back into service. Today, all of our current apparatus have a form of Casper hand painted onto them.
Later sold to public works and then to the Mountain Road Vineyard in Alpha, NJ.
