Stainless steel is the main material for all the fine details including window trim, antennas, mudflaps, various logos, grab bars, stirrup steps and much more. A team of 35 skilled craftsmen and women patiently trim, glue and assembly every component...some so small that a razor-sharp tweezers is required for handling. Syringes are used to apply a minute amount of glue behind each incredibly fine part. Patience, keen eyesight and a very steady hand are the tools of the trade in each hand-crafted Fire Replicas model. Enjoy your walk alongside the assembly lines of Big Red.

Jerry Howard's Big Red Autocar
Fabulous model! This is my 3rd Fire Replicas truck, so this awesome rig shares display space with Jerry Howard'd Midnite & the yellow Autocar sleeper cab. If you love vintage trucks as much as I do, don't hesitate a minute & order your own! The fine details make it easy to photograph FR models in a proper diorama & recreate a scene from the trucking past.

1956 AUTOCAR DC-75T - JERRY
Another proverbial hit out of the ballpark, these Fire Replica models seem to get better with every iteration. This latest Autocar, the 1956 Autocar DC-75T Jerry Howard's Big Red is a magnificent rendition of the original prototype. The details on this model are numerous and superlative, this is a true museum piece. The paint is rich and deep, the chrome work is intricate and bright. The lettering crisp and accurate, another winner for the company.
