If anyone was interested, the engine sold for $209,000.00. I wonder if the buyer has other fire trucks in their collection.

This is a 360 degree tour of the rest of this man's collection. There appear to be other fire related items in the collection if you look closely. The amount of the collection is staggering.

I realized the front grill was sloped down on the officer's side and the officer's side headlight sloped down towards the engineer's si...

Not bad looking, but not much description as to plastic, diecast etc. Something that popped up on page while looking was a listing for a one of a kind Conrad tiller. I immediately figured it was a custom made but upon looking at it, it almost appears to possibly be a prototype. Does anyone know anyt...
