    This is one of the most amazing replicas I have ever laid my eyes on. To be able to capture and create the truck as it was in 1954 is just mind boggling. The massive FWD Tractor is just beautiful with all its glorious details just popping out. Once you look this cab over and see the lights and bells you will be amazed by the grill lines. The rear of the cab has all the wires etc going to the trailer. The trailer and frame work to hold the turn table, ladders, axes, pike poles, and more our stunning with perfect lines. The process to stain the wooden ladder gives off a grain look. The main ladder and hoist is another incredible feature done in stainless steel and resin. Having seen the real trucks and the replica I was just in awe. The best part of classic fire trucks is everything was open to see, the replica is exactly the same. This one is a must for your collection, you will not regret it and my guess is it will be the centerpiece of your collection.
