Whoa... cool 1955 Ford F750 Fire Rescue Truck (thanks Case!)


Is this the most unique fire dept truck you've seen in a while or what?!!

The rear section of the roof slides forward, and the back door panel is presumably collapsible or removable. The truck wears “North Braddock Volunteer Fire Dept., Co. 3” lettering and graphics, and paint seems liked it’d look decent from twenty feet or so





It's on EBAY with No Reserve somewhere in Pennsylvania  http://www.ebay.com/itm/152296108063
