Thanks BK
Nice to see other conversions.

  I wonder if there is a user group for fire engine rv builders?

   And we worry about how much space we have to work with.........

Hey BK...looks like it was a pumper at one time.  If they hadn't removed all the pump controls it would make a class 'honey bucket' pumper!

But if had the original equipment..it could throw $hi- for a half mile...at least!

The conversion show a lot of class though....

I believe there is a fire truck for sale in Lakeland, Florida.  This could be the start of something new.

Are you sure that's not the "Fire Station"?  After all, it is Kentucky.  :)

Don't know about that one , but thereis a Ford COE Pumper for sale on SR 66 east of Zolfo Springs, FL.  Looks like an early 50's model.  Ah, if only I didn't already have way too many projects.  Jack

Jack,

On I-4 near the Lakeland Auto Auction, there is a old pumper for sale.....  Would love to own an old fire truck, but not a clue where I would keep it, or what I would do with it.
