Fire Iron
Old Time Fire Engine Show Rod

  • Original year: 1973
  • Company: Monogram
  • Scale: 1/24
  • Designer: Tom Daniel

Sound the alarm...here comes the Fire Iron! Tom Daniel's version of an old time fire engine is hot enough to smoke up the quarter-mile, cool enough to turn-on any mod smoke eater. Molded in fire engine red, this rig has brass-plated trim, black rubber super-wide low profile slicks and a Ford Cobra 289 mill with "hose coupling" headers. High pressure pump is under the seat, fire axe mounts on the side and extinguisher rides on the running board.

Dave's comments:

This model is a knockoff of Tom's original Firecracker in 1971. The descriptions are only slightly altered. In this 1997 reissue, the sides have identical artwork.
