1947 Mack

I found another Fire Replicas model that can be changed up easily. This was the Fire Replicas 1947 FDNY Mack engine. The FDNY decal was a easy removal.
I took off the scaling ladders and added the two hard suctions on the drivers side and a regular wood ladder on the officer's side. I had a old corgi Mack that i took the booster reels off of and replaced the huge deluge gun. I added a nozzle with straps and another axe on the drivers side. Using inquarters decals I am trying to see which department I want to mark it for.

That's a beautiful old Mack. City of Boston, as well as many others, had lots of those.

The reason it looks so real it was replicated by Fire Replicas. The Fire Replicas 1947 Mack L can be changed up to represent many departments. This one was changed over using decals from InQuarters Decals and a Corgi booster reel to replace the deluge gun. You can even make it look like the pictures from the 40's.

Done that once or twice! Gives it a nice vintage look!

Black and white photo's make such a realistic looking, "period", style photo.

Thanks for sharing
