My New (to me...) 1952 Chevy 3 ton (GMC Running gear) Model 1700 Canadian Firetruck!
This truck started life as a Butler Bros. gravel truck, was converted to a front pumper
Started Firebolt life with the Central Sannich Fire Dept....Was sold to the Willis Point VFD in 1977, was in service til 1992-3? was retired due to holey tank,
was rebuilt over the last 5 years and then sold to 1958GMCNut!
Looks fantastic! Can you tell I'm jealous! What's the plans,are you going to give Virginiafiretruck a run for his money?
Good to see another firebolt being saved.
Are you going to keep the door art or try out some of Johns new SVFD Maltese crosses?
1950 Chevy Advance Design 3100 in Scotland In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix on Flickr. I've definately got this truck thing in my blood ... my DNA sequence has torque settings "Of all the small nations of this earth,perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind" Winston Churchill.
I just posted this in the greasy spoon a couple minutes ago not knowing you had posted it here so I'm sure there will be a few of the guys lusting after the old '52 over there too...
