The 'cool factor' is leaving it a fire engine, you'll get way more attention driving it than having a car hauler.
If you really need to go faster, buy a more modern rollback that's big enough to haul the fire engine! Best of both worlds...
I owned this truck for almost 20 years and had the same thoughts about making it a car hauler...the wife and father in law talked me out of it and I never regretted it...I put over 30K miles driving it to shows and in parades!
