Your grandson is going to have a very difficult time going to sleep in that. So many things to do. So much fun to be had! Good job.
Being retired is hard work. Spending way too much time in the shop these days. (And loving it).

Thanks, it was an easy build.... The love of my grandson, fire apparatus, and woodworking how could it be anything but. I made it child proof also all the knobs, handles, and covers are movable, with the help of earth magnets. Any parts that are missing, are easy to find they will be stuck to something metallic. The overheads have strobes. the underside has a nightlight. The warning lights and headlights flash and wigwag. The extension ladder is functional and the roof ladder is also functional. Now a steering wheel (at his request) and I will throw in a soundboard to go with it. Thanks for looking
