I really liked this shiny old tractor on the Horsepower Highway as it’s been adapted to look like a fire engine. It has a wooden ladder along the side and a hose reel. But the piece de resistance is the lovely shiny bell.
It’s a McCormick International and I think that is a Bushfire Brigade logo partly visible behind the headlamp. When we were part-owners of a farm machinery business, we were agents for International tractors.

That's cool how they "remodel" the old tractor for decorative purposes. Of course, those old tractors probably will fire up if you give them enough pushes of the choke. Those things were remarkably well made.

I wonder if it was actually used as such... better than nothing, but they'd have to fix that flat tire before going anywhere.

@JudyEv It'd look good in a parade.
