 DESCRIPTION

One of the most charming Hot Wheels to ever be produced, Old Number 5 is a favorite of kids and collectors. Based on the Ahrens-Fox pumper, this is more realistic than the usual Hot Wheels offerings. With the pump mounted forward of the radiator, gold bright-work and twin ladders, this is a real beauty.
