A lot of life happened, still don't have the new chassis to start designing around. So rather than take a cab only frame to the meet, let's make some kinda hose-wagon brushfire rig. I dunno, let's say forestry service for now. Later we'll get back to FWD.
Led rotator light mounted, couple of Bruder firemen have joined the department at christmas. With the earlier wheelbase stretch, moved the fuel tanks aft, stuffed a spare tire in the frame.
Catch a hydrant to setup a forward lay
Horseshoe hose setup in the bed. Yes, it flakes off correctly.
550 paracord outer layer, would be about 3" line.
The town said i need 2 to operate the truck. Nailed it.
Hey where's the other fireman?
Uh, nothing...
