Jussi Kivi's most recent model project is this Hendrickson pumper-tanker. The cab is from a Matchbox die-cast model from 1960s and the body is from old NJ International white metal pumper kit. Red warning lights and Federal Q siren are scratchbuilt. Photo-etched mirrors are from Plano, fire hoses made from thin aluminum, and ladder, powder extinguisher, loudspeaker, handrail, and search lights from Roco. Rubber hose for the booster reel was made from metal wire.
