The Classics!!

Last month, when we went to Apple Fest at Delicious Orchard
I mentioned there was a classic car show.
They had many of the usual suspects,
 



but they also had this...

1923 Ahrens Fox Fire Engine

 Model JM-4

 Owned & Operated by Carl F. Zeller

 In excellent condition, this was a real beauty,
 
 and considered to be the Cadillac of Fire Engines.

 I liked the "bell"...and for those who my be interested,

here's a little more information on the fire engine.

I hope everyone has fun "Sunday Funday" plans!

Beautiful old cars! The fire engine is awesome! I've never seen one like it. I wonder what the value on that would be?

I love seeing those shiny old cars. My grandies have a thing for fire engines, so they would have been thrilled seeing that truck.

That is a fancy firetruck! I like that it has been preserved. When we go to car shows like that, Larry can identify most of the cars and the years they were made. Me? No. :-)

Wow, that Fire Engine; is a beauty. A 1923 one; awesome. I haven't been to a car show for a very long time. We are always looking for a two toned green 1952 Chev. It was our first car and we bought it together our senior year of High School. Later he went on his mission and I used it for going to Nursing classes. We pain $160.00 for it. It was Amazing!
Blessings for this one and the memory today!

Always fun to see something different at a car show. The fire truck was really cool and you got great pictures of it.
