Volkswagen’s original Transporter is an undeniably cute vehicle, but it probably isn’t the best platform on which to build a fire engine. Still, despite it being their slowest response equipment since the horse, the T1 did indeed find use with fire departments. We hope the fires were small…

This neat recreation of the world’s most slovenly fire engine comes from previous bloggee sm01. As well as looking rather nice it’s also remote control, and you can see more on both Flickr and MOCpages.
