Re: Firetrucks
probably never was parked outside for the first 30 yrs of it's life, also washed once a week
too bad the next 30 yrs weren't as nice to it, good start for a project at the right price

Re: Firetrucks
Here is one I found a few years ago. It was sitting under a cover on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. It is between Jacksboro and Henrietta, Texas.
I don't know who owns it. It would be a good one to restore. It appears to be all there including the ladders.

Re: Firetrucks
I'd say that the 47 was set out in the back lot after it was retired and the neighbor kids used it for rock and bb gun practice but I'd love to have it if it wasn't half way across the country.

Re: Firetrucks
That would definitely be a fun build. I would gut the box and drop the sides down so you had a huge pickup bed. It would make an awesome shop truck / parts hauler.
