Note the sign on the dash, " handbrake up for off". An accident waiting to happen.


Standard on butter boxes. When the handle is down, you can get out. When it's up, it blocks the driver's seat. Think safety lever on an excavator and you'll be pretty close

One of our Victorian members has a similar one with a 6-281 engine but this one should really move.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
The Appliance is still available and the price is negotiable; I need to sell it ASAP.

Last chance to purchase before it is listed on one of the social media sale sites - I need to sell it and will listen to reasonable offers.

A little bit of trivia, this very vehicle is pictured in the book Fire Appliances in Australia by Graham Vatcher on page 32.
I am surprised it has not sold as it is a very neat unit.
Good luck and i hope it sells.
Cheers Kevin.

Due to a last minute change at work, I can now confirm that the Butterbox ACCO will be at the Geelong gathering, if anybody is interested in having a look before considering a purchase! (I'm trying to be positive)
Kind regards
Plucka
