I ordered the Green one.. I remember these trucks as a kid in New Jersey ... All the years that I have been collecting, I have been waiting for this truck to be made.. I never thought it would be made..


It would be nice to have the specs. on the original truck..



I don’t know about you, but I want mine spec’d like Central’s. 425 cat with 100k planidrive with walking beam. This model appears to have the smaller front and rear axles. The front would prolly be 18k but rears are definitely not 80,000#. Maybe I’m wrong, just an observation.

Keep working at it Quin!

We have been dealers for the Fire Replicas Trucks since they started!

We actually were involved with some of the concepts from way back.

I know you won't make that mistake again - right?

They are "rookie rods" for new drivers. They allow him to see how much width he has to drive through an opening. But even seasoned driver's sometimes need them. AND they are cool as heck.
