Outstanding 1930's pressed steel Fire Truck Pumper by Structo. This piece is in its original same exact condition as it was when I recently found it. I did quickly hose it off and wipe it down with a soft shop rag, but there might possibly still be a couple small areas that need some minor extra cleaning. As you view the photos you will see that there are some light scuffs here and there from this piece being played with in the past, but it has survived quite well through the years!! T...his piece comes with the original fire ladders, and when you push this firetruck along the ground there is a bell that dings inside underneath which works perfectly as it should. I believe there is a hose missing? And I am not sure how well this truck would pump water if you wanted to do so. It does feel pretty intact up top so I would be inclined to say there is a good chance it does work, or would be an easy fix if it was not...
I did not really see any large areas of rust or corrosion. The body of the firetruck looks pretty straight. There might be a tiny small dent or ding, but I did not see anything big worth noting. I did not see any large gouges, nor did I see any noticeable breaks. Overall I think you will be quite satisfied with this piece. It displays excellent right now as it sits!! The firetruck measures roughly 23"-24" long x 9" tall to the top of the painted yellow pumper up top, and 6" wide.
Please note that I am not an expert when it comes to this area of collecting, or when it comes to these firetrucks. I am aware that these are highly collectible, and the more complete they are the more valuable they get. That said, please make sure you ask any questions you may have before buying. I will lose my mind if we do this 10 day auction and a buyer is going to make a fuss over something knit picky. I think I have given a pretty thorough description here and taken good enough photos (sorry for some of the glares though). There might be something really small somewhere that I missed but what you see is what you get!!Please view all of thephotos as they are part of the description, and ask questions beforebuying.
