Firecracker
A Five-Alarm Special

  • Original year: 1971
  • Company: Monogram
  • Scale: 1/24
  • Designer: Tom Daniel

Sound the alarm...here comes the Firecracker! 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 fire fighter. 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. Firecrakcer...it's hot stuff!

Dave's comments:

Tom's original method for putting out fires. He followed this in 1973 with a near-identical Fire Iron.
