Thanks for the info regarding the Jack, I’ll keep a look out and hopefully can get one for a reasonable price to reunite with the GG. -

Hi mate, thanks for watching the video and taking the time to leave me a comment. You present a valid argument and I was not aware of the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004, however the legislation covering blue lights and sirens still make use of the term Fire brigade purposes. Interesting to hear about your experience and I appreciate the debate. My GG is still registered as a Fire Engine so potentially I can delve into registration with the forestry commission and see if that could provide some top cover.

Hi Richard, thanks for the answers it’s great to be able to have someone put these questions to bed so quickly. Have you got any links to what the jack looked like?

While I wait for some parts to be delivered I did a quick walk through of what's inside this particular 1956 green goddess. It came with some strange items which were not definitely not standard issue. -
