The smallest fire truck ever

The Nash Metropolitan modified to be a fire truck

Nash Metropolitan – a 1960’s sub-compact economy car was converted into a fire truck by Overland Amusements of Lexington, Massachusetts. Born in 1954, this was the car that introduced a new segment in the global automobile industry – ‘subcompact’. Creating mayhem in the sales charts in US and Canada, the Nash sold almost 95000 in the 9 years for which it was manufactured.                      

The car still continues to pull a lot of heads after Overland Amusements showed the world what it can possibly become. This is not the only conversion that the company has gone through with. The company was responsible for more of such modifications in the ‘50s and the ‘60s.

But maybe you shouldn’t get all excited and start getting eager to buy a Nash yourself just yet. As much of a replica this one is to an actual fire truck, it is not intended to work the functions of an actual fire brigade. 

If you are like Phoebe from the all famous television series Friends and want to compete with her ‘not for hire’ cab then this modified Nash Metropolitan will cost you $29,500 only.
