Those of you interested in old fire trucks might be interested in a 1912 Christie listed for sale in the govdeals.com auction website, under automobiles custom classic. Price right now is at $56,000! Plus a percentage buyers penalty. Not mine and no interest in it! Located in Boston, Ma.
The same listings have a 1931 Ford model A coupe, with rumble seat, last running in 1979, engine not stuck according to the ad. Again, not mine and no interest. Located in Waynesboro, Virginia.

What a cool Firetruck!
Thanks

That's quite a machine. Way out of my reach.
Mr. Leno?

Jay has as much fun as anyone. And sharing these things enriches us all. He's taking nice care of some cars I have ridden in.
It makes me happy I don't have the responsibilities and worries he must have so I can be happy with what I have.
Thanks for the links to these videos. They are fun to see.

Sold, $312,900 including buyers penalty!

At rest or work.

I heard that Mr. Koorsen of koorsen fire protection bought it. I'm hoping to see it in the Indianapolis area sometime with his other pieces of fire department history

Look at that whizzing flywheel ! How about that for Health &Safety
