DSC06456.jpg	My brother is retired form the Columbus Fire Department. His first assignment was Engine 10.	His techinal advice and old photos made this model an exact copy.	I converted a Sedan Pumper into a Canopy pumper. I removed most of the roof and replaced the sides of the cab behind the doors.
The hard suction pipes are plastic tubing covered with masking tape for texture and painted black.	DSC06471.jpg	The hose reel in the back and the lower panels are each side of the body are scratch built.	DSC06474.jpg
Several parts from other kits were used to detail this model including the ladders.	DSC06477.jpg	DSC06481.jpg	The roof beacon has a working red flashing light and under the hood is the speaker for the working siren.
The classic Seagrave look!	DSC06486.jpg	DSC06487.jpg	DSC06490.jpg
DSC06491.jpg	I made the complete interior and hose bad.	DSC06493.jpg	The hose bed has hose made from elastic strips.
DSC06495.jpg	These things take time. It took me about 2 years on and off to complete this project.	I have another body which I will use to make the companion hook and ladder.	DSC06500.jpg
