dcc kaiser Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Realizing there are other rigs out there in addition to Mack, I have purchased a 1969 Seagrave rear mount ladder truck, a former Collingdale #1 truck. The owner has provided me with 2 numbers so I can get it on my insurance for the ride home.R4511 and SR20756Anyone familiar with Seagrave know which one is the registration number?

yarnall Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 George,I don't know anything about Seagraves, but congratulations. So you're rebuilding the Collingdale Reserve Fire Company. Now you have to restore the Ford.

505 MACK Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Just a little info, there is a Seagrave Yahoo group. I am working a 1920 Seagrave myself.Ray Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24126-seagrave-question/#findComment-110609 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcc kaiser Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Yep Michael, we'll be there on Saturday. We've been doing bits and pieces on the Ford, mostly interior cab stuff. And yeah, we're scooping up the former Collingdale rigs. I did find out the 52 Mack A Model that went to Hellam, Pa after it was replaced by this Seagrave went to Colorado around 1995, so that'll probably not be back. >>>As a side not to anyone, I have no idea how to put a picture on. Any Help??<<< Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24126-seagrave-question/#findComment-110719 Share on other sites More sharing options...

leversole Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Here is a screen shot of what you should see...Click the choose files button, a window pops up to let you select a file from your computer Click Open...Two things might prevent it, if the picture is to large, or the files size too big! Otherwise it should work...Once it is uploaded, click the add to post click Add Reply button and viola!

1958 F.W.D. Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hey George, if you ever call out to FWD/Seagrave for info/factory files on your truck, you will be connected to a woman named Molly in the parts department. She is a cranky old carmudgeon of a bitch. I envision her as a 300 pound load who has to sit on 2 desk chairs and any attempt to get her off of them (and the four doughnuts out of her mouth); like a request for her to pull your factory file will only result in her becoming annoyed that she has to drag her fat ass off of those two chairs. But I could be wrong, I am stereotyping but thats what she sounds like on the phone. She will give you any and all excuses to get you to stop bothering her and removing her from more important work (presumably studying menus from local take-out places for todays lunch order.....) Her greatest ploy which she has pulled on several people that I know will be to tell you she needs the factory sales order number- because thats how the files are stored. I happen to know for a fact that is wrong. She will also tell you that you have to send in $75.00 before she will pull the file- yes FWD/Seagrave does advertise a $75 cost for your file, but I am told that they will tell you first what is in it before they will reproduce it- which she will not tell you- she tells you that you have to send the money before she pulls the file- even if the only thing in your file is moths and dust.Just a heads up. Good luck!!! Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24126-seagrave-question/#findComment-116152 Share on other sites More sharing options...
