Worlds fastest fire-engine Maserati 3500 QP

Instead of all those beautiful English(Swedish) and American fire-engines I would like to present for its time (1966) most likely the worlds fastest fire-engine ever build.

Based on a Italian Maserati 3500 QP chassis with a 3,5 liter race engine an unknown Italian bodybuilder built only 2 off.

They served over 35 years on an Italian race circuit where they where stationed without any problem.

The crew was always a qualified licensed race driver and a fireman on first attack.

The driver needed to handle 235 bhp and a top speed of 220 km/hrs.
