Thanks for asking. And thanks for reminding me about my outdated pictures. I just added a bunch of brand new ones for your viewing pleasure!
Also, I sold my '72, so the slick is the only truck I have right now.
Check out this fire truck
Nice pics, it definitely looks like a happy truck! I like the painted steelies too, sorta adds to the overall clean look of the truck.
You oughta buy it some pedal pads for Christmas.
No pads always makes me nervous, because of the possibility of having a wet shoe slip off the brake pedal at an inopportune moment.

If it starts to rain, they'll tax the splash.
If you want to fish, they'll tax the bass.
If you plant a yard, they'll tax the grass.
If you don't play nice, they'll fine your *$#!

work until I paint it. It is in great shape though, so I am thrilled with it.Cool beans. As old as these trucks are, a nice tailgate is a reason for joy no matter what color it is.
BTW, I've been meaning to tell you for a while now that I like your avatar...I'm pissed I didn't think of it first!

The cab looks like one from a 61-64, too.

RhinoGT,
Great truck!!! Looks great with the new white wheels. You should try to catch a MAC meet someday.
There is a guy I run into at a car show in my area. He also has a Slick fire truck that looks similar to yours. If I remember correctly it does not even have 10,000 mi. on it.
I got a photo of it finally.....

I wish he would sell it to me.

Holy cow, that does look a LOT like my truck. You dont see too many with the Ford factory brush guard attached. And it is in NY too. Is that truck upstate or down?
The newer wheels work well, I had these on my '72 but swapped them when I sold that. But, I actually like the split-rims that this guy has on his truck. I have 8 of 'em, but cant find anyone to mount the tires. Maybe I can connect with the owner of the other fire truck and he can tell me where he got his mounted. The reason I want them on the truck? So I can put some stock hubcaps on! I know, I am looney. I just like that factory-brouchure look.
Thanks for all the compliments!

RhinoGT,
Yeah I think the brush guard is awesome. I would guess he is downstate.
I think going back to the split rims would be a good idea. The split rims would be fine the only thing you may miss is the better handling of the radial tires.
If you want I may be able to help with the mounting. If you're seriously considering send me a PM with your contact info after the hunting and holiday seasons. I know a guy who will do them for you. He said they are not a problem as long as the rings and rims are in fair condition. The company I work for has a shop in Bergen NY so getting your stuff to him and back to you I could also help you out with.
