1953 Chevy Fire Truck Auction

The bids are climbing nicely. Hopefully they're reflecting the value and getting up around where Mr. Cow thought they might...;-)

Imagine that. Things are heating up around a fire truck.

Actually, if one does some looking, the fire truck itself might not be that valuable.....

You're exactly right. We sold a '73 ladder truck for $1,500. Scrapping the brass alone on that truck would have been more profitable, but state laws prohibit such things. No one wanted an old 110' ladder with a Detroit. Fought fire very well, but wouldn't bring much money. Way more valuable than the '53.

They couldn't be bothered to reel the redline back up where it looked proper!?!?!?!?
