On behalf of a fire chief in Florida, I am trying to find departments whose apparatus is either blue over red or any version of red white and blue as this department is considering changing its paint scheme.
Please post pics on here or communicate via email if you can help. Thanks.

Perryville VFD in Cecil County had a '76 Ford pumper that was red, white & blue... I don't think they have it anymore, but the folks in the Cecil forum can probably say for sure & can probably supply a picture or two.

Yep, Gary does indeed have blue over red. http://www.garyfd2.com
Another one that runs blue over red is West County Fire and EMS in St. Louis County, Missouri. Their blue is darker, and metallic. There's also either a white or silver stripe running through the red part. Been a while since I saw a decent pic of one of their rigs, but they're very sharp looking.
There's also the recently retired "Spirit of '76" American LaFrance from Bakersfield, CA, of which a model was produced by Code 3 Collectibles late last year.
Ridgely VFD is White w/ Large Red & Small Blue Stripes. Our website is www.rvfd400.com that has our equipment on it.

The Cecil boys did come through and if my newly stirred memories serve me correctly, Pierce aquired it for their museum.

Do a search for BLOOMSBURY FIRE STATION 43. They have a red with blue roof engine. The stripe is White. The more I see it, it really does not look bad. BUT To me a good old RED FIRE ENGINE is the way to go!
