We used this fire truck for our business in parades, charity events, or just running around town as advertising. It's a lot of fun! People are always waving and honking wanting to hear the siren. It has just over 11,000 original miles....runs strong and in great shape. Always garage kept. All business decals have been removed. Includes original shop manual as well as a history binder of the vehicle. You are MORE THAN WELCOME to come look it over and take it for a spin before placing your offer! 1942 FIRE TRUCK PROMO VIDEO - YouTube Video will open in a new window Using the eBay App?
