Save The Grave Fire Truck Restoration

A 1937 Seagrave Quad Restoration. "The QUAD" was the first piece of fire apparatus purchased by the City of Virginia Beach. It was placed in service at Company 11, the city's first paid fire station. There it remained in service from 1937 to 1974, when it was retired as a showpiece. Please help us preserve some Virginia Beach Fire Department's history by making a donation.   As a community, your collective contributions will preserve your antique fire truck for future generations to enjoy. This past year the Quad has attended 6
different events.  Video of the Quad   https://youtu.be/_YxK3yupvVg
