  1. Hello,

     

    I have seen that there has been some chatter about the 1958 Alvis we acquired some years ago when we purchased some property in Manitoba, Canada.  No it is NOT rotting in a shed, No we have not sent it to the wrecker, We still have it along with all parts, including motor. So please don't assume all was disposed of. 

    The reason I stopped discussing said vehicle is I felt I was to feel a certain way about the machine, I came on here to get information about it etc not to be judged. Not all people have attachments to things they acquire by purchasing property

     

    I was wanting a Canadian value to advertise the vehicle including the maintenance manual to sell it .

     

    Regards,

  2. Good Morning,

     

    Would anyone know where I could contact to find out what the above would be worth? Its a Red Fire Truck, Runs, All parts re believed to be there service manuals are also there. I have no intrest in keeping this, way to big. Any feed back appreciated. Thanks

  3. Is this it by any chance? This is an Alvis Stalwart seen in Canada recently. I remember seeing it in the sea off South Coast of England once. Not a fire engine, but an amphibious load carrier.

    Not this kind, It is a firetruck,

  4. Welcome Leah,

     

    What Alvis vehicle have you aquired?

     

    Best, C.

     

    This Army fire truck was declassified for the gentleman that purchased this before me. I believe it came from the base in Portage la Prairie MB. Year Is 1958, He did drive this vehicle around. I tried uploading pictures, won't let me. Some parts are off the truck. but they are all there including service manuals

  5. Leah,

     

    What vehicle is it? Do you have some photos?

    Hello, Everyone thank you for the response. This is a Red Fire Truck with a Rolls Royce Engine 6 wheel drive, The owner was driving it up to a couple years ago, then he moved from Canada and now lives abroad.

     

    I have no knowledge of what I even have if anything, but it is causing a stir with some locals who just want to drive it. I personally would like to sell ?

  6. Hello Everyone, My name is Leah and I joined this site to learn about the Alvis we recently acquired. I hope to learn what this vehicle is all about.

     

    Does anyone know anything about this vehicle? Does it have a monetary worth?
