Note to buyer: The 1986 Hess Fire Truck normally has a silver chrome colored grille and rear trailer door. Offered here is a 1987 Fire Truck that is brand new/mint condition with a gold grille and rear trailer door. At some point during the manufacturing process a limited number of trucks were produced with a gold toned grille and rear trailer door.This subtle variation is a rare feature on this model. A limited number of these "gold grille" trucks exist and are considered rare for this reason.
