fdny medic unit - cml0774 - 02-02-2016
Fdny has a medic unit being built by customworks. I saw on there website under work in progress page; appears to be a chevy or gmc chasis.
Anybody have anymore info?

I don't think that is a medic unit in production. Aside from looking very different from their recent ambulances (different compartment configuration, non-extended cab chassis and a lighter duty chassis (3500 vs F-450)), if you look at the pictures, there's no windows on any of the doors on the body. Plus, on the drawing, the bottom left compartment on the body is labeled "volatile fluid storage". Haven't seen any medic units with a need for that type of storage.

I work for Custom Works. I can assure you it is not a medic unit. If I recall correctly going to be some sort of special services/specail call unit. No way in heck would we ever be able to do medic units for them.
