fire extinguisher

[fr59powerwagon]

Ron,
When I was taking my cab apart I found a old looking fire extinguisher bolted to the passenger side if the cab. It looks to be brass. Have you ever seen these before? I was just wondering if I should put this back in when my truck is done. Keep in mind this old truck was origionaly an old forest service truck.

I have seen those old school types which I believe are a pump type. It would be cool for a vintage look but I would rely on a modern extinguisher with and ABC fire rating. The old brass one should clean un nice enough with Brasso or other good brass polish.
