UPDATE: Thanks to a fellow member This truck has a new fire department. greg

Took measurements of Maisto die cast model and reduced to 1/25th scale. so far I have roughed out the deck lid. greg

This is what I am after: Using Yat Ming Mack and Monogram AC front. Front would be 5 spoke w/o brakes and rear would hold dual tires. The pictures are Danbury Mint 1/32 scale and Yat Ming Mack pumper which has front brakes on rim. greg

Nice job. Good looking radio/siren console. Where did it come from? greg

Now that Atlantis has brought back the Monogram Mack AC bulldog logging truck is there any chance that someone could 3d or cast a set of pneumatic tires and rims to modernize the trucks? greg

Helpful hint: find a model or die cast military model and rescale the dimensions up to your scale. This helped me when I built my Hummer ambulance in 25th scale. I found this site: Online Scale Converter Tool - Scale Modelers World greg

Like Neil Young sang 'they paint my car like a target." Crime in the city. greg

Nice job, ever wonder what it was? A black car with white paint or a white car painted black. greg

Nice job, Just FYI star of life was not around in 1957, would have been a red cross. What color is the red? greg

I am so sorry, I read the bio too quickly. Yes, he is alive it was Walter Becker's death date I saw. Gee I was just at the eye doctor two weeks ago, I guess the bifocals are bad as was discussed. greg

Tired of doing red so changed up to Tamiya orange on this one. AMT ALF Aero Chief 'quint'. Quint is 5 functions: aerial, ladders, pump, hose, and water tank. Modified cab with roof removal, extended side panels using evergreen sheet and half round. Added pump portion from pumper kit, modified side cabinets from kit, added dual rear axle from AMT Ford LNT. Rear fenders fabricated and round rod for trim. Rear stabilizers extended for greater stance. Boom has added tubing inside representing hydraulic lines, I added folding ladder, pike pole and extinguisher to bucket. Original kit against modified kit Lengthened body works, booms are same length. This the modified Aero Chief- MPC Dodge van mirrors. Electronic siren from AMT police car. Open roof, extended sides of cab, keep the vent windows in the side windows rear view of boom and ladder racks Interior shot of open cab, double windshield wipers-interior and exterior. Response along with pumper. Going on top to take a look The orange units in the department. greg

Try the late Donald Fagan's 'New Frontier' from Steely Dan: greg

YEA! Another Buckeye, welcome greg

AMT many released 53 Ford pickup truck has a nice set. greg

Nice work on the car. greg

Neat job on the snap kit, Easy kit to modify. greg

Has anyone produced a 1/24-25 scale Harley Davidson service car or made a casting or 3d of the rear to attach to the Maisto Harleys? I've got 1/18 Maisto, and larger Pyro model. greg

I would check with the store manager as the company policy is that the 40% off is bi-weekly and maybe your there on the wrong week. greg

Not quite on the road, or even can be on the road. greg

Nice job, Here's mine Done with first release. Thought of doing FDNY Super Pumper update. greg

A lot of fire departments have trademarked their logos so it's a little harder to use as scale decals. Bilbozodecals – For Police Diecast Builders greg
