Thanks chevy59! I had a '59 chevy also ,back a few too many years ago,wish I kept it!
That is too cool Bernie! Glad to hear you get to actually use it on a daily basis.
Thanks Perry, it does get used daily by all the shifts,it's become a new "firehouse tradition". We work a 24 hr. schedule, so I'm only there on average 8 days per month.Now when I retire, I'll have to leave it there!
