Studebaker Fire Truck.

Hose stacks and rubber hoses on the side. There will be a lot of picky-tedious details on this model. The model is about 1/24th size (about 13 inches long).

They had a Studebaker fire truck on the pad at Lackland when I was a kid, so mid 70's, it was well past it's prime, but it worked for students to learn fire suppression with. My mom sold my grandpas Studebaker coupe, with rumble seat, in like 71 or so, it just got too expensive for an E-6s paygraade to keep running across the country with.
Thank you for the encouragement, everyone. I'm working on those picky-tedious details now.
Thank you, John!You really captured the heart of this truck. Impressionistic art work.
Spent much of the day just getting this far. Doesn't look like much headway, but those details are time consuming.
All I accomplished today was to glue the cab to the utility section, and a baseplate (to be the running boards) was glued to the bottom of the body.

Greebling is adding extra details and augmenting details by turning printed texture into physical detail.
It has a face, now. Still figuring the best way to make the pump.
Pump, hoses, and other accessories on the front bumper. TEDIOUS!
