Description
A remarkable chance to own an exceptionally rare American LaFrance Type 75 — a true giant of early 20th‑century engineering and an unmistakable crowd‑pleaser wherever it goes.
Powered by its magnificent 14. 1‑litre straight‑six engine, this machine delivers an unforgettable presence on the road and never fails to draw attention. It remains in regular, reliable use, benefitting from recent mechanical care including new tyres, a relined clutch, new drive chains, and additional maintenance that keeps it running smoothly.
The vehicle comes with a selection of useful spares, making it ideal for continued enjoyment, display, or preservation.
Originally commissioned as a Pittsburgh fire truck in January 1927, it boasts a fully documented history from new — all of which will be passed on to the next custodian. Its provenance, condition, and rarity make it a standout opportunity for collectors of historic American vehicles.
