The Howe Fire apparatus Company adapted its fire pump and booster tank to a Ford Model T chassis for several hundred of these modest little pumpers for the U.S. Army in World War 1. The long "squirrel tail" style suction hose came in handy for drafting water from rivers or ponds. The engine could draft water without getting the truck too close to a soggy river bank.

Another view of the same truck:

This one looks like a standard chassis with a form-a-truck attachment of some kind.
