1:35 Model T 1914 Fire Truck with Crew is a plastic kit of a fire truck on a Ford Model T chassis complemented by crew figures, in 1:35 scale from ICM.
Responsibility details are not available.
The kit joins a model of a fire truck built on a Ford Model T chassis of 1914 with figures of the crew, in 1:35 scale. It is released by ICM, the Ukrainian manufacturer known for its historic cars and accompanying figure sets. Compared with the separate release of the same vehicle, this package is extended precisely by the figures of firefighters, so a small scene can be built from the model right away. The exact number of parts, the number of figures and the extent of the decal sheet are not stated here.
The Ford Model T was the first truly mass-produced automobile, and its simple, durable chassis became the basis for the most varied purpose-built bodies. The fire version was among the most striking: an open body with room for the crew, a tank or a pump, hose reels, ladders and lanterns. In the second decade of the twentieth century this was a fundamental modernization for brigades that until then had relied on horse teams — a motor vehicle cut the time to reach a fire to a fraction.
Assemble and paint the frame, the engine and the running gear before they are closed in by the body. A rich red finish looks best over a light base; apply it in several thin layers and varnish it with a gloss varnish before the decals, so that they do not silver. Metal parts can be brought out with a polishable metallic paint. Wooden elements are well modeled with a light base on which the grain of the wood is drawn with an oil paint. Paint the figures separately off the vehicle and fit them only at the very end.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
