In this last photo, that looks to be a guild D40 or D45 guitar with a sunburst top. I wonder how old it is.

thx for all your comments and to Rudy for posting pics of the truck

I was inspired by Damiens fire truck seeing Mr Sharkeys site a few years ago....and finally the thought turned into reality!

I would like to finish the detailing with some gold NYPD stickers for example

on the cab....

Have found some great pics on the web of the same truck still in service over there, stateside, fast becoming replaced i would imagine.

It has a ton of grunt as its weight is way down on what it was designed to pull and is becoming a comfortable dwelling

Up for sale, more so because i'm curious, i will be overseas (away from NZ) and dont really want to leave it sitting for a winter (they like to be used!) so thought i would put it out there.

keep on truckin

That is interesting, I was designing a housetruck based on a fire truck. While doing online research for the project, that is how I found this site.
Aside from talking to my brother Ted, this is about the only place I can discuss some of my ideas without some narrow minded pawn saying "You are crazy, why would anyone want to do that?"

I put that project on the back burner for now. I still have the fire truck, and I still plan on building it someday.

Thanks again for the cool site Sharkey.

Hey Chuck....

Hope that firetruck comes off the back burner soon! I will be over your way in a month or so would love to take a look if you get started on it:)

Heck, I was just in Hollyweird last night. Wish I'd thought ahead and made arrangements to swing by and check out your crown! Maybe take a gander at that Paramount. Dang.
