VIDEO: A one-of-a-kind restoration project is finally complete. The Canton Volunteer Fire Department spent more than 25 years bringing one of its trucks back to life.
A piece of history has made its way home.
âHistoryâs good for some things (laugh). Itâs nice to let everybody reminisce how things were and how things have changed,â Canton Fire Chief Nate Laubach said. The Canton Volunteer Fire Department started restoring this century-old chemical truck in the 1990s, but the project quickly stalled. AJâs Automotive inherited the restoration about four years ago. Simply locating parts was a challenge.
âThe truck was torn apart for a long period of time and so we had to find parts that were in different shops it had been in and it just took awhile,â AJâs Automotive Body Shop Manager Troy Drewes said.
