Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
I started a thread in 67-72 at one point, but I see nothing here. Let's see some pictures of 88-00 fire & rescue rigs. This first one is a nice one!!

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
It's neat that many FDs lifted these trucks. It's not like they're all not custom/purpose built anyway. Maybe I should put on a carnival or bull roast to raise funds to raise my Suburban. the Mt. Airy VFD seems to use a mix of Fords and Chevys for support vehicles. They've always had a Suburban. I like how they put "Volunteers" in gold script on the back of those vehicles. I'm not even sure what they have for a brush truck. They used to use an M37 with full exto-cage.
I found this crappy little picture of one Chevy they have

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
I have no idea. I just found the picture searching the net. They look like the wheels Alcoa used to make. I think they were just blasted and painted because there's no color in the openings. I was going to powder coat a set of those in gun metal grey on the '95 K3500 custom work truck I had. But those wheels had just been discontinued. That was in the late-90s

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
In our area fire and police depts sometimes put their vehicles up for auctions. I have tried several times to buy one but each time they get bought by someone in each particular community for way more than market value. Makes no sense.

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
You used to be able to buy surplus for cheap. Now, there is too much competition

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
This 1988, model CK30903 just showed up on an auction site here in Sweden. It is claimed to have just 44883 kilometers/27889 miles on it. I think I will bid on it if it doesn´t goes too high.

Re: Picture Thread: Fire & Rescue
Very interesting to me that you have these trucks in Sweden for fire and rescue. I think it's cool but isn't there something more "local" that could be used?

I´m still here from time to time. The firetruck auction I posted went too high, at least I thought so 5 years ago. Considering today's truck prices it might have been a good investment anyway.
