A few pictures of the fire truck

Post by walnut »

I have been busy lately and have not had much time to mess with the new toy. I put more miles on it since I bought it than they did in years. I plan on scrubbing the undercarriage and detail the motor next weekend. Still need to take a leaf out of the rear springs to improve the ride.

I can't get a good picture of the undercarriage but there is no rust and should clean up nice.

:yt: I concur about the lettering! It just makes the truck stand out that much more and looks SOOOOOOO good!! I love the fact that you left the lettering there!

I'd put a light bar back on it. I guess you would have to go with yellow to be legal.
