Argghhhh Awful....but a truck with a history nonetheless. I guess the proper route would be to restore it with the current body.

According to the ad it's a 1941 Chev....so, probably a C15A in stead of a C8A?

Alex, you are quite correct, it does have a history and as indicated on another thread that I can't seem to find there is room for restorations of this type. The Dutch body builder has converted this to a very attractive vehicle and it sure would be a nice conversation piece here in Castleton.
Cheers,
Barry

Alex, Barry,

The Dutch coach-built C8A-based fire engines first came up in Wheels & Tracks magazine. It turns out several have survived in this form, see http://www.historical-fire-engines.c...915.search.htm for an example.

See CMPs for sale in Holland for another (better) one for sale.

Also see Dutch CMPs for other HUP fire engines in a more standard configuration.

HTH,
Hanno
