45mfd1,welcome from Scotland.
It's great you've got one of the original firetrucks back,even better you're bringing the old gal back to life.
Like Leo's already said head over to the S.V.F.D. the guys there will also make you feel at home.
Not only that,there's a wealth of knowledge there regards these fine old firetrucks.
