I have an interest in the pre-LAFD days of ambulance service in Los Angeles city. It seems there are not a lot of photos or information on the old "G" units, or "brown bombers" as I have seen it referred to. I am wondering if anyone knows anyone, that knows someone, that might know someone that was around back in those days? As a modeler, I am always striving for accuracy, but these days you dont know if what you see on the internet is always true. Finding photos associated with the IMCDB does not always mean they were actual vehicles. I did find a photo recently of a 56 Ford F100 with the LA City seal on the door. One does have to wonder if it was from a movie set or an actual vehicle. I often wonder who the prime manufacturer was of the late 60's or early 70's rigs with the Ford F100 pick up chassis? Any thoughts on where one might locate accurate historical information? A additional note. I have seen the web sites associated with the "G" units, and the Adam 12 site. Thanks. Rich
