Beschreibung
American La France was the largest fire truck manufacturer in the USA, producing several thousand fire trucks each year until 2014 when the company ceased operations. If you see a fire truck in an American movie, it is likely to be an American La France, as they dominated the market since the 1800s. Unfortunately, due to a series of mergers and financial difficulties, the company closed its doors in 2014.
This particular fire truck is built on the Speedster model, and American La France was known for its large and powerful engines. The engine in this vehicle is 14 liters and produces 130 horsepower, running on gasoline. These vehicles were appreciated for their high quality and reliability, which were crucial for fire trucks. This early model features chain drive, which was considered particularly good.
This fire truck arrived in Sweden over 40 years ago and has been showcased in the Sparreholm collection ever since. It is being sold as an exhibition piece, unstarted and unregistered. However, spare parts are readily available in the USA, so it should be possible to get it running again for a mechanic with an interest in American cars.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
