1981 Ward Fire Truck. It is a 1981 GMC C6500 chassis. It"s an old Navy fire truck.
Automatic with air breaks. Runs great. 33,000 miles, however the odometer does not work nor does the fuel gauge. I"ve been told they are somehow connected. Has good tires. Siren and most emergency lights removed. The ones in the pictures stay with the truck. They have been disabled. Air horns work.
Was bought not too long ago and never put into service. We took the department in a different direction. I was told the pump worked when I purchased the vehicle. It has a Hale pump. I don"t have all of the caps, so when I fill the tank up with water it leaks out and I can"t test the pump (as you never run it without water). Other firefighters have told me they"ve engaged the pump and it does turn over. I don"t see why it would not work.
All compartments open and work fine. Three hard hoses are included but no other equipment. Body is in great condition. There is one spot by the driver door where the paint has come off (maybe 1 inch by 3 inches) but the body is aluminum, so it"s not rusty. Few small cracks in the paint near the charging plug.
Truck has a foam tank, and a water cannon on top.
Any other questions, please ask.
