The Texas Fire Museum performs apparatus
restoration services and is dedicated to performing high-quality
restorations of historic firefighting apparatus.
We offer
turn-key, frame-up restorations, as profiled in this section of our website.
We also perform partial restorations including: pump repair,
body work, engine work, drive-train repair, electrical systems,
braking systems, hydraulic repair, painting, gold leafing, and
upholstery restoration.
Recently, funeral and
parade coach conversions have become a popular option in
addition to traditional restoration services. Refer to the link
below for completed restoration pictures of Richardson Fire
Department's 1983 American LaFrance Century Series featuring
this option.
At the Texas Fire Museum,
we pride ourselves on our ability to reproduce and fabricate rare or
obsolete parts, including Babbit bearings for vintage engines.
In January, 2010, we added the reproduction vintage American
LaFrance seat frames to our list of services (click
here for more information). We have the experience and means necessary to complete
restoration projects of any caliber.
