Found at the pull and save - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I could not believe when I saw what they had drug into the pull and save today. Does anyone know what the tow hooks on the front are from? Are they universal ones?

That thing is SWEET. Would be nice for someone to salvage it and restore it back to original.

I would at least grab that pinstriped door, it would look great on the garage wall!

Neat old firetruck. The tow hooks were probably standard equipment on it.

Where is this? I need those doors!

That looks way to clean to ever go to the yard...hope someone saves it

kaycee · 10-20-2010, 11:05 PM

Hooks could be from a 67-72 4X I would snatch them up they were in demand a coupls yrs ago.

1952ssr · 10-21-2010, 04:38 PM

I'd be pulling every part usable off that thing. Headlights, buckets, trim, grill, dash gauges, I mean everything. No sense in letting that stuff get crushed someday. Can you say EBAY.

USSkoval · 10-21-2010, 10:48 PM

That shouldn't even be there in the first place. Same goes for the two next to it. What's wrong with people?

JimmyFloyd · 10-21-2010, 11:20 PM

If you go back, I want the GMC emblem from the front if you can grab it and it's cheap enough.

Russell Ashley · 10-22-2010, 08:57 AM

Isn't that the same truck that someone advertised a while back, and said that if no one bought it he would sell it for scrap? I thought he was bluffing about the scrap part, but I guess he wasn't.
It looks complete, maybe even running. I hope someone buys it before it get's crushed.

What a shame, would make a great vintage hauler.

mr48chev · 10-22-2010, 09:43 PM

Those fire trucks are usually pretty rust free unless they have been sitting outside for years.

I have one of those hooks that came with one of the 51 Chev 1-1/2 tons I bought last spring and am pretty sure that they are a GM unit that probably was sold through the dealers parts counter.

That front bumper sure would look good on my 1-1/2 ton but that fire truck looks ten time better right now than my truck does. Cut the bed/box down so a ramp bed would work on it with trimmed down tool boxes and set it on later 1 ton running gear.

Check it to see if its a 302 or 270 H port. Jay
