Restoring 1940 Seagrave

The 1940 Seagrave was originally delivered to the Beech Grove Fire Department as a white engine and at some point in its life painted red. When the truck was restored in 1970 the truck was painted back to the original white with the help of the local Amtrak shops.

I am creating this page to get the information out about restoring the old 1940 Seagrave fire truck original to Beech Grove, IN. I plan to bring this truck back to life and this page is to show the progress andaybe show interest for donations to complete this progress. Stay tuned for pictures, history, and updates on this old rig. Thank you.
