Dear all,
here comes another fire engine I built some years ago.
It is a Ford C Pumper in scale 1:25. I used an AMT Ford C Truck for Chassis and cabine and the pumper body from AMT American LaFrance Pumper. Painted in a yellow color (in Germany we don't have yellow fire engines - reds only). Some time later, when model was already finished I saw a very similar original Pumper on a open house day at the Rhein-Main-Air-base (near Frankfurt).
this monitor comes from GRAUPNER and was a monitor for a Fire-boat in scale 1:25
the red beacon-light on top of roof is a lighted fuse from elektrical supply (this one is a worn from a Leopart tank) ...
The pump panel
Mabe you recognized the wrong distances at the three position-lights on top of roof - yes I did not remember, that the three in the middle are closer ...
