Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, she is a pretty cool truck. Actually, this truck was has quite a history with the plant where I work. I'll try to elaborate in another posting.

I had a '56 6400 Holmes wrecker, '55 5700 LCF Flatbed, & a '56 5700 LCF cab & chassis. All v-8 powered. I'd like to find a 9000 series '56, or '57 LCF, like Mikes. I know of a, '57 10500 series FireTruck, similar to Mikes, close to me For Sale. It has no engine. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 323 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2005 Posts: 323 | I'd like to have a fire truck someday being a fireman and all. i wish you guys could see all these big bolts here in the Willamette valley. People will just about give them away. I was thinking of putting a wrecker body on my 56 napco. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 29 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: May 2005 Posts: 29 | She's going to get astakebody type bed.
