    I just purchased this yesterday. The seller had no history on it other than buying it 10 years ago and it was made about 1950. As far as I can see there are no missing parts, the steering, pedals and bell work but need adjustment, etc. Just a few minor dimples mostly on the front fenders, no rust-through anywhere.

    Restore or not? That is the question....

    Thanks for your input, comments or questions welcome.

      Nice pedal fire truck. If it were mine I would leave it alone, its worth more to me in its unrestored condition!

      Had one exactly like this in 1953. I would leave it as is. It shows its age well. Brings back so many menories

      Had one handed down to us as a kid in the 60's, this brings back fond memories of wrestling for the seat with siblings. Mine was lots more beat up than yours. I'd say leave it alone.
