Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

International VCO Fire Ladder Truck - By David Flynn


David Flynn built this 1/87 scale model of a fire truck used by Medina, NY in the 1980s. It is a 1960 American LaFrance ladder truck on an International VCO chassis. The model was made using components from three vehicles; an IHC Mack CF ladder truck was used for the chassis, body, and wheels, cab is from Imex, and the aerial ladder is from Model Power. David reports not many HO ladder trucks are "midship mounts." The decals are homemade.
