Just got a call from the Vienna, Mo. Fire Protection District and the board accepted my bid on this ladder truck.

Don't know how long this link will last, so this is the only pictures of it and due to a family get together, I will not be able to pick the truck until next week.
It's an in service Fire Truck and no repairs should have to be done in the near future.
I have not said a thing to the Wife or anybody around here about it all.
I guess I have no other choice than to do the rule that says
"It's easier to get forgiveness than permission"

Think I can talk the wife in riding in it to KC Sept 10?
Would this be the first Fire Bolt at the reunion?
We will be there, but what we bring is still up in the air.
