67 swb fire truck
 

Picked this little gem off a farm today. Can't wait to get started on it. 292 4spd.

With all the tools I carry around, I almost need a utility bed!

Greg wouldn't you know it... missing the offset oil bath air cleaner.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

I was watching this one on Craigslist and when I noticed it was gone I was really hoping a board member got it, can't wait to see what you do!

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

That's how it goes!

But since it has that problem, you probably don't need that 292 in there anyway. How about selling me that? :lol:

I have no way to store an engine right now but if my 250 ever goes out or if I ever get another truck I want a 292 to replace it.

Are you going to to keep the utility bed?

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

That is a way cool truck! I hope you keep the utility bed on it

Re: 67 swb fire truck

Nice find ,really nice , that looks like a Reading utility box , and I have to say I never even new they made a short bed utility box version I cant even recall even ever seeing one , I would venture to say that utility box is worth big bucks.

Re: 67 swb fire truck

Re: 67 swb fire truck

Chassis-Cab! What's up with that radio? Service sticker on the SPID says 'GTE'. Maybe that explains the yellow color under the red? I can't imagine a Fire Dept would have bought a used rig tho.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

I was on a volunteer department that bought a used beer truck, turned it into a great crash (extraction tool) truck. It's possible. Was this used by a city or volunteer department?

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

2 PO's ago said it was the Monroe, Wa FD. So, yes city. I can tell a logo has been painted over on the doors. Maybe I can uncover it by wet sanding.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

Cleaned it up a little and got some stock steelies on it. I'm still working on the correct caps.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

Really neat truck!

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

Somehow I missed this one ,Im in now ,great truck.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

Finished a couple original caps. I think the rims would have originally been black or body color. I like the white tho.

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

I dig the white with red also. Looks good!

Hey Stomper I have a high school buddy that works for the town.Like truck way cool!!!

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

Awesome little truck there

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

What's up with the dash around the radio? Are there signs on the back that the radio area has been welded in?

Re: 67 swb fire truck
 

I know! It's a '62 FORD radio. Welded / bondo'd / painted for a perfect fit. I'm searching for a new dash.
