greg g Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 These were made by several companies, in very similar shapes, and logo'ed for many manufacturers, Ford, Chevy, Mopar, Hudson, etc. and on the marine side Gar Wood, Chris Craft, Century etc. Seen them marked for Mack, Brockway, Kenworth, AutoCar, also. Probably many more as well as lables for the manufacturers like Presto, Pyrene, Quick aid and several others. Nice accessory with the MOPAR id, if you gotta have the label, I've see them in swap meets and one fellow at the SPAAMFA (fire apparatus afficianadoes) had about 50 of them starting at the scrap value for brass and going up to about 250 for one New in the Box with a Ford plate on it.

Dodgeb4ya Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 This "MoPar" embossed fire Extinguisher issue has been mentioned before. This is what a NOS one looks like complete with box and bracket. They are very rare to say the least! Bob Quote

greg g Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 (edited) Seems to be different manufacturers, or at least different construction. Must be a choice between ribbed and non ribbed......... Edited February 10, 2011 by greg g Quote
