1992 Suzuki Carry Fire Truck

It might also be a Autozam (Mazda) Scrum.

The graffiti in #2 might say "Antifa".

Honourary Old Parked Car: 1996 Toyota HiAce Firetruck

One of the owners told me that in Japan there are small fire stations scattered at regular intervals throughout the countryside, each equipped with a small truck like this.

This one came as a fully functioning firetruck, with hoses, clothing, tools, etc however it is now used for hauling building materials, so all that had to be removed. Apparently there are a number of these in the Lower Mainland, and I have seen a few about.

Post #50! 1968 Pontiac Bonneville Superior Ambulance

Something special for the 50th post.

I saw this beauty on my way home, and didn't know when I would ever see it again. As you can see by the uneven colours, I struggled to get good results.

Looking at all the lights and bric-a-brac, I half expected the plates to be "ECTO-1". So wild, the pointy emergency flashers, the enormous sirens. Yet it is the real thing -- this was an actual ambulance.

The other modifications are more tame but still interesting -- the single pair of taillights, raised roof, curved rear window glass. Plus of course the classic platform -- such a beautiful design. Clearly a shared platform with the hearse by the same company -- not an inspiring thought if you were to need it's services.

1971 International Harvester Firetruck

I see this truck parked on a busy road out the west side once in a while. Has signs posted on it advertising a realtor. Love the golden stripes, the lights, that almost blank front, the brutal wheels, the dainty yellow and white.
