Where did the fire Jeep serve at? Are you going to letter it for that department? Looks great, can't wait to see it when it's done!

[38ff 250]

It was bought for an Industrial Fire Brigade by Western Electric in Winston Salen NC in 1954, where it served until 1989, then went to a Boy Scout Camp fror a few years, then to 2 private individuals, then I bought it. Strangely enough, it was never lettered/stickered/goldleafed ever in it's life.

You should have it labled "EMTBRAVO Engine 1"

Latest Update: What a jeep looks like without sheetmetal. All nicely painted and ready for the body!

That mule is badass! That would make one helluva deer hunting buggy!

I like the mule, but my wife loves it. She calls it hers.

As for the Jeep, the exhuast system was giving me some problems, but I have that figured out. A combination of "shade tree mechanic" fixes over the past 70 years and some not quite right parts gave me fits for a few days, but we worked thru it.
