Hope you get the help that you need GB, haha!

 

Don't you need one in case your smoker gets out of hand? Seems to me that your island could use more fire support.

 

That won't work... I bought this one from a scrapper last year and sold it over the winter. She wouldn't believe me about a second one. Yeah, that pig roaster puts out a lot of heat in August.

 

I have not yet told the Mrs. How much .... She keeps asking!? Lol she'll figer it out soon enough!

 

A bargain at any price! Fire trucks usually have low miles on 'em.

 

5000 on mine!

 

We all know too well how much it would cost to do the work to bring everything back to the 5000 mile wear mark. About 30 grand and I'm not kidding. That is an AWESOME truck you bought. You keeping it as a fire engine, or converting to something else? I would love to do one as a wrecker. Not sure why, maybe to haul home more rolling piles of misery.

 

Seems I recall a skid loader "helping" that tonner panel "roll"!

Last M-H p.o.s. I hauled home was stuck in gear. Loaded it with a D3 Cat. Thankfully disconnected the rear shaft and could winch it off. Buying the fire engine in such great shape is huge repair/restoration "cost avoidance". Stu

 

The guy that has it has a 40 tanker and a 40 panel truck and a odd Nash wrecker . I will get photos this week of all the stuff in his the shop .

 

.....My wife said to me one day:
"Either all those old cars go or I go"
......... We don't bother to keep in touch......................
Stan . ........

 

Bumper sticker---- "I still miss my ex wife, but my aim is improving" And Stu, she rolls like a dream now. Gonna get back to reassembling the engine today after work. Gotten real busy here lately.........

 

Will I just got home from the guys house that has the fire truck. I gave him a down payment and it's mine! I put some Marvel oil in the jugs to see if I can get the rings to move. Dale told me that it has blow by happening . So I will let it set tell next week .

 

I tell my wife she is in the top five things I love! She knows better then to ask wear she is in the top 5! make that top six things I love! ( got to make room for my new truck! lol

 

Here is some other trucks

 

Why did you have to show that dual wheeled 1 1/2 ton panel? Is it for sale? Of course it would be out of the question for me.
