The History of our International K4 Pumper

Our K4 Pumper was in service from 1943 to 1970 and was stationed at 5 fire stations around Victoria. The body was built locally in Kavanagh Street, South Melbourne by Alf A. Mitchell Pty. Ltd. Pictured at the right is the engine turning out to a fire call from Frankston Fire Station in 1944, the other stations were Geelong, Lilydale, Watchem and Rochester.

Back before 1944 the current CFA was known as the Country Fire Brigades Board. The amidships pump produced 350 gallons of water per minute. Enjoy the thrill of riding on a 1940's open Vintage vehicle, by giving Firefighter Rob a call on 9795 0714. You wont be disappointed!

Dear Firefighter Rob

We cannot thank you enough for the terrific time Ben had at his third birthday party at the weekend. Children from 2 to 10 were delighted by the fire engine and the adults were tripping over themselves to get a ride too. The whole street came out to join in and I think most of Bentleigh had a ball waving to the children as they rode past. The children were so busy they did not eat piles of junky party food and as a result we had a three year old's party with 16 kids and no fights or tantrums. I cannot recommend you enough to my friends and other mothers looking for a exciting, educational and affordable Party Solution.
