Up for auction is a 1969 American Lafrance 100" ladder truck. I bought this truck from a town here in vermont who had taken it out of service about 4 years ago when the purchased a newer unit and had it in storage since, starting it once in while to keep everything working. It is powered by a v8 detroit diesel engine and a Allison 6 speed automatic transmission. I was really impressed when i went to look at this truck before buying it and simply hit the starter button and it roared right to life and purrs nicely. All the hydraulics for the ladder work extremely smooth. The truck has 10:00-20 tires , the steering tires are getting down but rears are still decent, Truck has air brakes that work good, There are some spots where the paint has peeled off and a little surface rust has started but no major rust issues. Although this truck fires right up and runs great, I recomend that it be trailered or towed home do to the fact of its age and its been parked for 4 years ( I did drive it home but it was a short distance) This is a great collectors truck or restore project. This truck will be sold with a Vermont dealer bill of sale / report of sale and a previus registration from the fire dept only because Vt does not title any vehicle over 15 years old. If you have any questions please feel free to email me or call 802-485-4920 and ask for Reggie. Thanks for looking and good luck !
