1964 Mack B85 Thermodyne - Fire Truck





All boys love fire trucks ( Just ask my Great Nephew... Little Man A...) When I saw this truck today at an event I was at I knew I had to take photos of it.....


I was a little depressed when I found out the 'Antique' Truck was only two years older than I am!  but I decided that if it can be an 'antique' and look that good then go ahead and call me an antique.  I don't mind.


Keep Makin' Art!

Great photographs! I think that is my favourite color of red.

And remember, fine wine only gets better as it ages. ;-)

The color is magnificant. Little boys aren't the only ones who love fire trucks....One Christmas my Mom took me to Macys to see Santa. She showed me a cute little push peddle sports car. I wanted nothing to do with it. I wanted the fire engine!! Christmas morning Santa had not only brought me the fire engine, but the red hat to boot!!!
Oh, and me and that beautiful truck you photographed came out the same year!! I think the truck is fairing better than me. teehee

Dave - Thanks for putting it in perspective for me.

Rie - I think I have seen a picture of you in that fire helmet. I'll have to look thru my folks pictures and see if there is one. PS you are holding up just fine Cuz.
