My new fire engine
« on: July 31, 2010, 18:01:35 »
Hello :wave:

Today I recieved a new fire engine from ebay. It cost me £15 plus P+P :)

I understand it is quite a rare one



Ok, the greys are a little of colour, and it is missing it's roof furniture but it still looks good






It came with lots of Klickies and accessories:




It is what my dodgy one I bought from ebay that time should would have looked:



However that one is currently under referbishment, to reveal something that so far has never been done to a Playmobil fire engine :shhhh:

Damo :)

Sorry, I hadn't made it clear - I used a pic of the custom one to show what it would have looked like originally (my nice new one in the first 3 pics)

I am currently refirbing that old customised one in the last pic into a very special fire engine 0)

That's a 3526 you've got there, Damo, and at a good price.  Congratulations.  The most difficult missing pieces to replace are the extending light mast and the lights to go on them (although the lighting mast from the 4820 will fit).  The other main item was a yellow dinghy which is till available I think or available often on eBay.

Here are some photos which show the major missing parts and maybe a couple of small ones you haven't noticed are missing.  Apart from those you just really need one of the long wooden ladders from the farm or castle.

Not sure, but I think I may have a yellow dingy - whether it is the same or not I'll have to check.  At the moment it is, with all my Playmobil at the village hall.  The drawers of spares are being stored at the back of the stage but I'll try and get to it tomorrow and check if you want one Damo.

I may have the oars and motor, but they may be in at the removal firm until we move in September.
