This year America’s oldest manufacturer of
fire, rescue and EMS apparatus has turned 175 years old! American
LaFrance has successfully created safe, durable and innovative emergency
vehicles for almost two centuries and continues to be a leader in the fire
apparatus industry.
To honor this landmark year, American LaFrance
will throw a two day celebration planned for Oct. 19th and 20th
in Summerville, South Carolina. To coincide with the 175th
anniversary celebration is the company’s new headquarters grand opening.
With so many
American LaFrance dedicated customers, followers and buffs throughout the
country, the company’s 175th anniversary celebration is
promised to be a popular and historical event. The two day
celebration will feature activities for everyone including an antique
muster, swap meet, educational seminars on antique restoration, children’s
activities and more. American LaFrance antique owners and buffs are
