Check out the fire engine that I hauled for a fellow firefighter.

Pretty neat huh?

Oh yeah it does run and drive, it needs a new gas tank (hence the Texas gas tank on the cab), some paint and a bit of TLC.

Other wise it was driven on and off under it's own power. Even has the orginal owners manual and warranty card.

 

Looks Cool! I guess your coworker is going to restore it? Paint it? Enter it in parades etc.?

..

 

Conversion? would be cool.
be there with the gas tank before, if it works, right?

 

I guess that's the plan. The truck was registered with a FD right up until 1988 and then it was purchased from the town and the truck sat out side right up untill last year, hence the need for a new paint job. The body is solid. The only rusted out parts were the orginal gas tank and the battery box.

Unfortunately while it sat out side on the curb, alot of the stuff that makes a fire truck a fire truck was stolen or damaged (siren, lights, hoses and brass tips, etc).

 

Sweet. 4BT conversion??????

 

Is it the original flat head 6 gas engine? And is it a pto front mount pump, Waterous punp? Just wondering. It looks like a rare truck.

 

It is a flat head I -6. Considering the weight of the existing I-6 and size, I would estimate that 4BT would be lighter and smaller....

The water pump that is on front is a front pto pump.

I have never seen a truck like this which, makes it somewhat special.

 

Please keep it original.You would be trashing the truck to convert it.Ron G
