Exceptionally detailed and true to the Engine 51 used in the Emergency TV show. Extremely small parts are carefully assembled to almost perfectly match the photos of the engine at the LA County Fire Museum.

Acquired the Squad 51 Dodge and had to also have this Engine 51 to complete the collection. Though sold out on the Fire Replicas website, I managed to find this for sale on an alternative purveyor's website. Absolutely amazing and stunning model down to the smallest details. Well worth it's weight in gold and I'm so extremely happy to finally now have this and the Squad 51 Dodge in my collection, which brings me back to fond memories of the days of watching "Emergency" as a kid.

I recieved Engine 51 on Monday 7-31-23. I couldn't believe the detail and craftsmanship. I also got Squad 51. I have the fire station from Code 3 collectables. I have to do some remodeling of the station to make the new rigs fit.

Excelente replica digna del engine que representa, la calidad de los detalles (escalas, mangueras, piton monitor, etc) son fantásticos, vale el dinero invertido y más aún que gracias a esta serie soy bombero y paramedico. Excellent replica worthy of the engine it represents, the quality of the details (scales, hoses, monitor piton, etc.) are fantastic, it is worth the money invested and even more so because thanks to this series I am a firefighter and paramedic.

As a fan of the old TV show Emergency, this piece is a topper for any collection. The detail right down to the folds in the hose and the air pack straps is just jaw dropping. Fantastic work Fire Replicas and a wonderful tribute to a great TV show.
