Restoring Detroit’s Vintage Fire Truck

A century-old Mack fire truck, once a parade favorite in Detroit, is getting a second life thanks to the family of a beloved firefighter. Mostly original and steeped in local history, the truck needs modern parts and funding to roll again—thanks to a heartfelt online fundraiser launched by Ben Roberts’ kids after their father Gary’s passing. This isn’t just restoration; it’s a tribute to legacy, community, and the generations who loved this iconic engine. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
