That just solved my concern. It just seemed too small but then yet I was not sure what the size would be when compared to real life. You have a picture of your fire car. Would love to see it. Thanks

In general pumps aren’t very big. Even the 1,500 gpm pump on our fire engine is only about 12 inches around and 4 feet long. It’s all the outlets and appliances on them that make them look big.

Here is one of the Fire Cars from the Valley Logging Co.

That is a great idea. I saw someone else do this as well and did the same for my car. The lace end looks just like the end of a fire hose.

Shawn, you can use one of those plastic headed push pins, looks similar to a nozzle, albeit maybe to modern for your application.
