1958 F.W.D. Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 One would think that with the amount of money he dumped into the restoration he could have the correct gold leaf graphics applied. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53807-b-model-fire-truck/#findComment-402479 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, however the graphics he has on there are **FAR** from period correct (not only in style and font but wording as well.) I am confident that it was the "Bureau of Fire" at the time and the maltese cross is not correct.
