Assembly pics of Chicago's 1990's Seagrave Ladders

There is something truly classic about the Seagrave Ladders that Chicago Fire Department used in the 1990's.  These trucks had clean, straight lines and a no-nonsense bold stance. Producing a replica of this beautiful rig that is small enough to take home, is a painstaking process. Over 18 months, each of the hundreds of intricately detailed parts are designed, cast or fabricated, painted, decorated, and trimmed...then organized in small bins, ready for assembly. There is no substitute for the laborious tasks that each of the 35 skilled men and women perform. It is a sight to see as each team member patiently adheres each part to another, consistently analyzing the end result. As you scroll down the assembly pictures, take notice of the parts on each workstation and you will gain a greater appreciation for the process. And don't forget to add this classic workhorse to your Chicago collection.

    Here is another remarkable example of Fire Replica's outstanding contribution to the fire model collectible world. This vintage recreation of a European style aerial ladder is faithfully captured in the Chicago Fire Department livery and design. Once again, the attention to detail is of the highest standard. In historical retrospect, many Chicago Truckmen loved this rig, and found it to be a dependable piece of apparatus. Here's an excellent addition to anyone's collection of an important workhorse of the Chicago Fire Department!
