These 1/64 fire trucks were done by Code 3 back in 2005, but the level of detail as well as proportion, fit, and finish was exemplary.

The set includes two different tractor/trailer assemblies as well as three satellite pumpers. The real vehicles were supplied by Mack trucks in the mid '60s and they've all been long retired.

...and FDNY is getting ready to place an "Industrial" pumper into service, built by Ferrara. It is referred to in-house (Ferrara) as a Super Pumper, but FDNY will not use that term. It is in the shops and will be assigned soon.

That is incredible detail on those models!

Your models are very nice.  I previously posted pictures of my Code 3 Chicago Fire Department trucks, which have similar level of detail as yours.  I think I purchased mine in late 1990s.

$650 that's what a Dutch seller asks for a complete set.
