maxwell48098 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Not sure where exactly to post this, but I figured it is a commercial truck converted to a fire pumper. I built this in 2009 using Diamond T conversion from Spaulding Trading & Shipping, Ertl ALF pumper body and pump, mounted on an AMT Diamond Reo frame with a Ford Louisville single axle rear suspension. Booster line is actually solder, hose load is shoe laces with a tissue hose bed cover, while the suction hoses are Evergreen tube and ALF couplers. Ladders are from the ALF pumper kit, while other accessories are from the parts box. Color is Dupont American LaFrance Red. It is based on a nearly identical pumper I saw at an antique fire apparatus muster in New York in 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
