Oklahoma’s Gift to FDNY Restored | Tulsa News

A retired FDNY fire truck, once donated by Oklahoma after 9/11 and serving New York for two decades, is being resurrected by Tulsa Tech students—turning a symbol of cross-state solidarity into a hands-on learning project. Once forgotten in a Massachusetts field, the rig was rescued by a retired Tulsa firefighter and now has students rebuilding its engine, electrical system, and transmission. After mechanical restoration, auto body students will give it a fresh coat of paint, preparing it for display at the Tulsa Fire Museum. This full-circle moment honors Oklahoma’s historic support for New York—and teaches real-world skills through steel, sweat, and shared history.
