Full Description

1997 Oshkosh T-1500 4x4 ARFF Truck - Running Engine (As-Is / Fire Pump Repairs Needed) This vehicle features a heavy-duty 4x4 off-road chassis and a 1,500-gallon capacity system. While the vehicle's engine runs well and received recent service, the primary water pump and bumper turret will require repair or replacement to be fully operational.
