1948 Diamond T Model 509 Firetruck | Car Restoration
1948 Diamond T Model 509 Firetruck is one of the American legendary truck made by Diamond T in 1948. This would be a very nice object for your restoration project. Title in hand. Pumper truck (back-end) was originally built in Seattle.
These Diamond T trucks are very hard to find. They were known as the Cadillac of Trucks back in the day. Now, they are known for their factory chopped-top look.
This 1948 Diamond T Model 509 Firetruck has some rust & will need some serious fabrication to restore, but still very possible. Otherwise, it would make an awesome rat rod project. This includes the original Hercules gas engine, but doesn't run. Many people convert to the 6BT Cummings diesel.
Owner says: It breaks my heart to sell this fire truck. It was expected to be a future project, just don't have the time & my wife wants it gone. When I first got it, you could barely make out that it said Yakima County on the door, which was printed under the last coat of white paint.

Priced to sell at $2,800 Firm (very fair price) Please text or call Joe to schedule a day & time to view it. You will need to load & haul it. I expect that it weighs around 13k lbs. I've included photos of a couple hot rod Diamond T's that others have build. These make for great car hauler or fifth wheel projects.
