1931 Gramm Howe Antique Vintage Fire Engine Truck for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 635 votes

1931 was the first year for the Howe Defender. I bought it from SPAMFAA in New York.   They said it was from Amsterdam. NY. but who knows?  I've owned this truck for 12 years. restored it in 2004 (see photo with pumpkins) but have used it on my horse farm since.   I pump (draft) from a pond to keep the dust down on my outdoor riding arena in the summer.   It is outside in the summer.   It is under cover in Fall. Winter. Spring.   In winter it is out again when I decorate it for the holidays.   It ran and pumped in May. 2013. but I haven't been able to get it started since.   I am a good amateur mechanic.   Probably rusty ignition switch. ammeter or ?  This truck has  6 new tires (left front is flat) lots of accessories. and I also did the radiator shell and pumper (good chrome).   The body wood is very rotted in places.   Otherwise. an easy restoration.   Please see photos. I don't want to keep writing.  

You must pick it up.   I need a $500. 00 deposit at auction's end (3 days. no more. sorry).   The truck will have to be winched onto a flatbed.   There is so much BS on Ebay since I joined many years ago. that you must have at least 5 purchases. and positive feedback.   If you don't. email me.   I will cancel your bid if not.   Pay for the truck when you come to get it. I reserve the right not to complete the transaction if I don't feel you will honor and respect this truck.   It needs to be preserved. not stripped for parts.

This is a rare opportunity.   There are lots of 40s and 50s trucks out there. but very few early ones available for restoration at this price. I will not take offers.
