Beschreibung:

Just as the Model T's engine was tasked with every application under the sun, Ford's new flathead V-8 was used to power just about everything. This Ford-powered Ajax water pumping unit could very well have been used to fight fires or water fields. Today, in its red finish, it likely portends to do more of the latter than the former. Either way, it will make filling up the bath take a lot less time.
