The monastery in our area has expressed interest in buying it. We don't know what price to put on it.


My gut said $4,500. Too high? Too low? That's why I'm here.

Now that I have your attention I figured I'd throw that last bit out there.


If they don't bite, we'll just list it somewhere.

You have a monastery in Oklahoma? With ninjas?

That's crazy.



Wonder what mine would bring. I have it insured for 50k.


Back to the firetruck. Bed stays. Stock bed isn't here. Was bought out of TN if I remember the facts correctly. Chief picked it up 30ish yrs ago. The stock seat is stored so he says. He put the buckets in to fit the radio and light controller.


Buddy of mine wants me to buy it, put a flatbed on it and use it to haul hay. I :lmao::flipoff2: at him.

Sell it to your buddy

Edit: normal bed and hay is all its good for :flipoff2:

Why ? He's got that here already without working on it and then someone else said 5K, course thats easy to say, whole other thing to un ass of the coin

OP, if the pumps and everything work I'd bet someone in the fire areas would pay 3-5K easy

Tax write off.
Donated to rfd?

I'd imagine it's a harder sell with that bed vs no bed

If he can get 5 grand, that'd be surprising.

Maybe scrap is low and the bed isn't worth $300 I dunno.

3 seems high as it sits . Guess it depends on how fast they want to sell it

Fail:flipoff2:
I can't tow home GARBAGE here fer under 3k
 
Provience said:
To who? Are there that many volunteer stations that would pay say 2 grand for a several decades old setup ?

In that case, don't scrap all that, list it separately :flipoff2:

Sure, but when was it purchased? Doubt it was 45 years old when you [state] bought it

Easier to justify new stuff on initial purchase, especially when all you need is a "bond" to cover it

Need pics of the pump and the pto setup. Can't quite read the tag either to see what the pump is rated at.

A lot of those old pumps had brass valves, and maybe even a brass pump body. All those caps are chrome plated brass. All that stuff = good money just in scrap value.

Interior looks pretty nice. If it pumps and doesn't leak too bad, that's easy a 10k setup to some farm or ranch in wildfire country.
 
Our local FD advertises their trucks locally for sealed bids until a date, then they open them up and call the highest bidder. I'd say 5-6K isnt out of the realm of possibilities.
 
I'd be interested at $2000 $1000 and If it will drive to the east coast. :flipoff2:

It's probably worth $3000 around here.

There used to be a firefighter themed bar here that had the side of the pump truck on the wall with all the beer taps on it like that. Miss that place, but rent prices drove them out of business.

Where is it? What year? Id think an easy $2500, and a harder $3500... more then that and the price seems to quickly out weigh the novelty

I think us on the west coast are looking at a personal fire truck a lil differently than the easterners on here:laughing:
 
There’s a brewery in South Dakota that buys old fire trucks to use as billboards.
Not sure where OP is, but I doubt close enough that that is an option.

Yep... but why???

Because they are a value... $2500-$3500
 
How big is the tank? What part of OK? If it's near the panhandle I might be interested just to keep it on my farm in case shit.
