1911 Christie fire engine WIP

Harry,

I stumbled onto this beautiful thread by chance.  I have long planned to build a backdated version of the Christie kit sans motorized tractor.  I already have two "Breyer" horses to pull the rig, and reference materials on the harnesses and other equipment  that will need to be fabricated.  I still need to source the front wagon wheels.  Can't see buying an $85.00 kit just for a set of wheels.  Harry, fantastic job!  Thank you for sharing your step by step photos!

I have a partially built one I picked up for much less than $85. I assume you need a set of its rear wheels to use as fronts?  If you promise to post some in-progress photos of your modeling I think those wheels can find its way to you.  PM me.

Thanks, Ken.

Well done, I have wanted one for years, almost bought one at NNL East but was late in the show and I was almost broke.  That's what an NNL will do to ya.
