{"product_id":"ford-fire-trucks","title":"Ford Fire Trucks","description":"While \nfully custom rigs have traditionally been the pin-ups of fire apparatus, \nthe backbone of the American fire service has always been trucks built on \ncommercially available chassis. Although there have been many commercial \nchassis providers throughout history, there is arguably no more \nrecognizable name in the American automotive industry than Ford. This book \nserves as a pictorial history of the role Ford chassis have played in the \nevolution of fire apparatus.\n\nFire trucks of all types built on the famous Model T, the long standing \nF-Series, the venerable C-Series, the honorary Louisville-Line, and other \nmiscellaneous Ford models have prolifically and efficiently served towns \nsmall and big alike since the advent of motorization.\n\nThis chronicle pays homage to the contributions this automotive legend \nhas made to the fire service with a brilliant display of classic rigs and \nmodern machines, with representatives from over 150 fire apparatus \nmanufacturers ? from the glamour queens themselves to smaller builders \nwith characteristics just as neat as their big name peers.","brand":"Ertel Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31912133623879,"sku":"B03998","price":29.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0057\/9813\/3831\/files\/2e9bd439-aabc-4428-9ca1-a3ab6e50d2b2_268d6.jpg?v=1772255506","url":"https:\/\/www.midlifeclassiccars.com\/bs\/products\/ford-fire-trucks","provider":"MidlifeClassicCars.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
