VINTAGE RADIO SHACK FIRE ENGINE WithORIGINAL BOX, BATTERY & CHARGER! SHOOTS WATER

AS JUST STATED, NOT ONLY DOES THIS FIRE ENGINE WORK AS DESIGNED AND SPECIFIED ON THE INCLUDED ORIGINAL BOX, IT'S ALL ORIGINAL WITH NO RUST, CORROSION, CRACKS, BROKEN OR MISSING/REPLACED PARTS! I REALLY HATE TO CALL THIS USED, BUT, I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS ALL OF WHICH I HAVE PERSONALLY OWNED FOR UP TO 5 DECADES! WHAT I DID BACK WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, WAS TO TEST MY NEW ADDITION, MESS AROUND WITH IT, REMOVE THE BATTERIES (IF APPLICABLE) AND STACK THEM UP IN A FEW OF MY CLOSETS IN MY PARENTS HOME...... I THEN MOVED ON TO MY NEXT PROJECT/VICTIM! THE FIRE ENGINE LISTED HERE ALSO INCLUDES AN ORIGINAL RADIO SHACK RECHARGEABLE BATTERY AND CHARGER! I HAVE ALSO LEFT IN THE 9 VOLT BATTERY FOR THE COOL HAND HELD REMOTE CONTROL. HAVING HUNDREDS (TO THOUSANDS) OF MODEL CARS TO CHOOSE FROM, MOSTLY PORSCHE AND CORVETTES, I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF THESE HERE ON E-BAY. 9 5 % OF THESE ARE ONE-OF-A-KINDS LISTINGS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS FULL ACTION RADIO SHACK FIRE ENGINE IS NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE!

THIS MODEL IS RELATIVELY A SIMPLE ONE TO OPERATE (AS MOST OF THESE VINTAGE MODELS ARE), BUT, DOES WORK PERFECTLY AND AS IT DID BACK WHEN THIS WAS NEW. THIS FIRE ENGINE DOES HAVE A VERY COMPLEX INTERNAL OPERATING SYSTEM WITH DUAL FUNCTIONING BUTTONS ON THE RADIO CONTROLLED REMOTE CONTROL (MORE ON THIS LATER).

ALL OF THE GRAP HICS ON THIS FIRE ENGINE'S BODY ARE ALL STICKERS/DECALS. SOME OF THESE DECALS ARE STARTING TO PEAL OFF SLIGHTLY AND THIS ISSUE IS EASILY FIXED WITH GLUE. THE BODY DOES HAVE A FEW TINY SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE, BUT, IT IS IN OVERALL EXCELLENT TO SHOWCASE CONDITION. MOST TO ALL OF THESE EVER-SO-SLIGHT IMPERFECTIONS AROSE FOR BEING MOVE D ABOUT A LOT OR AS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS BOX RASH.

ALL OF THIS TRUCKS TIRES ARE SEMI-PLIABLE AND WORK WELL TO CONTROL THIS TRUCK, BOTH INDOORS AND OUT. ON THE CHASSIS OF THIS MODEL (THE UNDER CARRIAGE) YOU HAVE THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT'S INSERT FOR THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY. THIS SIMPLY SLIDES IN AND THEN LOCKS INTO POSITION.

I WOULD ALWAYS FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERY PRIOR TO POWERING UP THIS FIRE ENGINE, THIS WAY YOU WILL HAVE NO ISSUES WITH ANY OF THE FUNCTIONS. AND SPEAKING OF THESE FUNCTIONS, THIS FIRE ENGINE DOES AND OFFERS THE FOLLOWING FEATURES ALL OF WHICH ARE CONTROLLED BY THE HAND HELD RADIO CONTROLLED REMOTE CONTROL. FIRE ENGINE GOES FORWARDS AND REVERSE (1 SPEED ONLY), 2. FIRE ENGINE TURNS LEFT AND/OR RIGHT (NON-VARIABLE), 3. EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON ROOF ALTERNATE & FLASH ON AND OFF, 4. FRONT HEADLIGHTS LIGHTS WORK WHEN GOING FORWARD, 5. REAR RUNNING LIGHTS WORK WHEN GOING IN REVERSE, 6. CRANE/LADDER IS FULLY ADJUSTABLE AND RAISES AND LOWERS, 8. CRANE/LADDER SWIVELS A FULL 220 DEGREES, 9. WATER CANNON SHOOTS WATER AROUND 10 FEET. AGAIN, I NEED TO STRESS THAT ALL OF THE ABOVE FEATURES ARE CONTROLLED BY THE REMOTE CONTROL AND ALL OF THE ABOVE FEATURES WORK PERFECTLY AND HAVE BEEN TESTED VARIOUS TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DECADES TO INCLUDE TODAY THE 21ST OF APRIL, 2017. THE BOX I S IN VERY GOOD OVERALL CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE. YOU WILL FIND NO ADDED GLUE OR STAPLES ANYWHERE ON THE BOX OR IT'S LID. YOU DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL FACTORY TAPE LOCATED IN SIX (6) AREAS ON THE LID AND BASE.

YOU HAVE THE "TOY CLEARANCE" PRICE STICKER ON TWO AREAS OF THE LID AND THE ORIGINAL STICKER PRICE CONTAINED WITHIN THE BOX ITSELF. THE COOLEST FEATURE IS THAT THIS FIRE ENGINE STILL SHOOTS BLASTS OF WATER ON COMMAND FROM THE HAND HELD REMOTE CONTROL AND YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO MOVE THIS WATER CANNON AROUND TO VARIOUS HEIGHTS AND ANGLES... JUST LIKE THE REAL THING. I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD.

I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING THEM AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF (IF I DEEM IT NECESSARY). I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS!

I LOVE THIS ONE, "I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS MODEL AS I HAVE NO KEY TO WIND IT UP", THIS IS USED ON CLOCKWORK OR WIND-UP MODELS. AFTER ALL HOW HARD IS IT TO TOSS IN A FEW BATTERIES OR TO WIND UP A MODEL??

PRETTY DAMN EASY IF YOU ASK ME. ALL-IN-ALL YOU WILL BE VERY HARD PRESSED TO LOCATE ANOTHER ONE OF THESE RADIO SHACK FIRE ENGINES THAT LOOKS LIKE AND WORKS LIKE THIS ONE DOES! ADD TO THIS THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL BOX, INSERT AND INSTRUCTIONS AND NOW YOU HAVE SOMETHING THAT ANY COLLECTOR WOULD BE PLEASED TO ADD TO THEIR COLLECTION OF UNIQUE FIRE APPARATUS MODELS. ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AS THEY DO A FAR BETTER JOB OF SHOWING YOU EXACTLY WHAT IT IS THAT YOU WILL BE RECEIVING FROM ME VS.

THIS FIRE ENGINE MEASURES OUT AT CLOSE TO 22 INCHES IN LENGTH X 5 1/2 INCHES WIDE X 9 INCHES HIGH. (55 X 14 X 22CM). THIS VINTAGE RADIO SHACK FIRE ENGINE IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF A MODEL AND OF AN ERA THAT HAS LONG PASSED US BY. THIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW STORE FOR ME HERE ON E-BAY, BUT, I COME WITH A WELL OILED AND POLISHED TRACK RECORD! A GOLD T/RATED POWERSELLER WITH OVER 8 YEARS OF THIS STATUS BACKING ME. I SPECIALIZE IN PRIMARILY THE AUTOMOTIVE FIELD AND I CONCENTRATE WITH/ON PORSCHE, BENTLEY, AUDI AND.

I HAVE A UPS ACCOUNT AND MOST OF MY OFFERINGS HERE SHALL BE SENT THAT WAY. I PACK EACH AND EVERY ITEM MYSELF AND DO SO AS IF I WERE RECEIVING IT.

THIS RADIO SHACK FIRE ENGINE. UNFORTUNATELY, IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD A FEW RUN-IN'S WITH SOME SCRUPULOUS BUYERS, WHO BY THEIR VERY NATURE DO NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHERS.

ALSO YOU INTERNATIONAL BUYERS, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE BATTERY CHARGER IS FOR NORTH AMERICA AND AS SUCH IS A 110 VOLT CAPACITY AND NOT 220. AS MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS IS A NEW AREA FOR ME (HERE ON E-BAY) AND I DO TRY MY BEST TO DO AS GOOD AS I CAN. THIS HAS BECOME A FULL TIME BUSINESS FOR ME AND I REALLY ENJOY DOING IT. I WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO TILL IT BECOMES A BURDEN AND I CAN NO LONGER ENJOY IT.

I WILL BE ADDING TO THIS STORE WEEKLY (OR TRYING TO) AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL SEE THAT I DO EXACTLY WHAT I SAY AND DO SO IN A VERY TIMELY FASHION. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS, PLEASE READ THE VERY BOTTOM OF THIS SECTION AS IT DOES APPLY TO YOU..... WITH THE ADDED FACT THAT THIS FIRE ENGINE WORKS AS DESIGNED AND AS NEW IS REALLY ALL THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!

YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO LOCATE ONE OF THESE FIRE ENGINES IN BETTER OVERALL WORKING CONDITION/SHAPE! THIS IS WHERE I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN READING ALL OF THE ABOVE.

IN ORDER TO VIEW MY LISTINGS IN A CONCISE AND ORDERLY FASHION, ALL YOU NEED DO IS TO LOCATE THAT SMALL. DOOR A TOP THIS PAGE.

THIS IS LOCATED JUST BELOW MY SELLERS ID AND FEEDBACK TALLY. THE VIRTUAL DOOR TO MY STORE HERE ON E-BAY!

IN ORDER TO STREAMLINE YOUR SEARCH FURTHER, ONCE YOUR IN MY STORE, TO THE LEFT YOU WILL SEE A "SEARCH" BAR, IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE JUST MY MODEL CARS, JUST TYPE IN "MODEL CAR" AND JUST MY LISTED MODEL CARS WILL POP-UP. IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE SOME LP'S... I THINK YOU GET THE JIST OF THIS NOW! I HAVE A LIST OF CATEGORIES THAT WILL ASSIST YOU IN STREAMLINING YOUR SEARCH AS WELL. ONCE AGAIN, I THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONS ON THIS USED (AND VERY LIGHTLY USED I MIGHT ADD) VINTAGE, PLASTIC , BATTERY OPERATED, RADIO CONTROLLED "FIRE ENGINE" WITH IT'S ORIGINAL BOX, INSERTS, INSTRUCTIONS, RECHARGEABLE BATTERY IN PERFECT SHAPE AND IS 100% FULLY OPERATIONAL AND FOR ANY OTHER CONSIDERATIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE GIVEN ME IN THE PAST.....
