She served the Strongsville Fire Department front line from 1980 to 1996. Then in 1996, she was painted red and the pump was rebuilt. She then served as a reserve engine from 1996 to 2005. I purchased E4 in 2006. I have clear title in my name and have it registered/insured as a historical vehicle. Over the years it has been used in multiple parades, car shows, weddings, funerals, proms. From 2010 to 2013, I used E4 for Engine Operations for Live Fire training classes held monthly at community college. Over the years, she has also been used as a reserve rig and for a lot of training at my fire department. The lettering BROWN on both sides has been removed.
It starts, runs, drives. It has the classic Detroit diesel oil leak. The pump works but it has some issues like any old truck does, but it does pump and I have pumped a few fires with it. The pump is not currently certified. She does have dings, dents, scratches associated with years of an active fire engine. She does have some rust. I will include all original and historical photos and documents I have related to Engine 4. There is no warranty expressed or implied. I will assist any way I can with pickup of truck. If it needs to stay here for a few days to get transportation situated, that"s no problem.
Please if any questions, feel free to contact me!
This truck has to go to the right home!!!
The reason I am selling is I do not use her as much as I used to and I want someone to continue to get enjoyment out of her.
I reserve the right to end the auction early
