Squad 51 Dodge Rescue Unit - By Mike Smith


Mike Smith built this replica of Los Angeles County Fire Department Squad 51 from the '70s hit TV show "EMERGENCY!". He used a Roco Dodge pick-up for the cab with Roco wheels turned down while chucked in a drill. Mike scratchbuilt the rescue body from Plastruct styrene but notes his measurements were a little off as his box came out a bit short. The light bar came from a Praline Plymouth Gran Fury. The cab clearance lights were shaved off of an IHC Mack pumper cab. The decals came from JBot.
