FDNY AUXILLARY FUTURLINER

I picked up this nice Norev GM Futurliner in 1/64th scale. I just couldn't leave it alone, so I removed the GM side tampos, and decaled model for FDNY. Made truck/bus into a Civil Defense/Red Cross Auxillary Unit. Actually looks good this way.

For the FDNY purists, say its on loan from GM during the Korean or Viet Nam wars.

Chuck,

Awesome model. It looks a natural in that scheme. Similar to the Flxible bus they had around then.

Are you aware the Michigan State police had one of these?

As usual very nicely done. Definately different though.

Now, that is a something. Looks like something out of "War Of The Worlds."

Actually, two of them were bought by the Michigan State Police. The second one was kept as a spare. Both were painted in MSP colors.
