GA_Dave Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Can you add any info about your fire engine? Where is it from? What company built it? It appears to be an older, 1920's era, American LaFrance body remounted on that chassis.

Licensed to kill Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 I know very little about it. I bought it from a guy that bought it from a truck museum that was selling off all of it's inventory. I believe it is relatively local (Northern Alberta) but can not confirm that. I have since added a couple wooden ladders ( a roof ladder and an extension ladder) and a vintage pike pole. Would still like to get the proper hose for the reel to replace the rag hose and correct axe (the one I put on it is a fire axe but has a polansky type blade rather than the pick). Something that i find interesting i that it has, what appears to be, an original electric fuel pump (mounted on the firewall). I didn't know that EP's were a "thing" that far back but it makes sense on a truck that sits for a long time but needs to start ASAP when needed.
