Hi There! I've had a few Stovebolts in the past, and came across this Pumper for sale locally. Of course I am not a firefighter, a parade enthusiast, nor have any use for a fire truck, so obviously I bought it.
It was restored at some point, and runs very well, but as mentioned earlier, is a fire truck. I can get her up to about 50, but that's just not good enough to overtake the Prius doing 52 in a 55 on the highway.

The question is, to make the thing more user friendly to other motorists, should I 350 swap the drivetrain and store/sell the 216/crashbox or leave it alone and put it back on the market? The first two pictures are as she sits, the last is an idea of something I would like to build.
