1976 Chevrolet/Howe C65 Fire Truck at Mecum Indy


Oh man -$2200. - if in Canada at that price I would have bought it as a new cruiser. Love it.....biggrin and a 366 big block Chev.

When a buddy and I flew to Wallaceburg many years ago in his plane he was all over the fire truck display and even climbed up a very high ladder truck that was extended, until some told him to come down....no

Wallaceburg used to have a show for planes, boats and cars. If you flew in entry was free.

They bused us in from the air field.

A 366 with 19,000 miles is almost worth that by itself, at least around here where all the grain trucks had them.

What a cool truck.

 Pretty sure the 366 was a tall deck -perfect for a blower motor - oh am I getting ahead of myself here......biggrin

Imagine a 6/71 stuck out the hood of this........YIKES!!

If it was me I'd strip the 366 for the crank to build a passenger car 427!!!
