So far so good - wheel and master cylinders as well as a carb rebuild. Also did the gaskets on the valve cover and oil pan (with an interesting find in the oil pan - a new bolt that was identical to those holding the piston rods on. All were present, so I think an extra one fell down there at the factory.) This rig has only 5900 miles on the speedo! Next will be the fire pump. Hydrovac also just got sent out - couldn't find a rebuild kit for it. Lot's of fun as a daily driver to work (fire station). Also to be used for kid's birthday parties and PR for the Firefighters Association. http://s1083.photobucket.com/albums/j390/rfarino/ | | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 482 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 482 | Greetings from So Cal. Looks like you have a project truck in excellent condition. Should be a fun resto project. Fair to say that firetrucks never really get driven much and so tend be low mileage? BTW, we have a project house in Nipomo and travel up there often. We love SLO. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Welcome, your going to fit right in with the "firebolt" guys.
