"...Craftsmen
of the highest caliber who produced trucks regarded
for their quality and performance..."

Welcome to the Unofficial Maxim
Motor Company website. This site was assembled so that
I could share some of the information I've learned about
the Maxim Motor Company. Maxim Motor Company used to design
and assemble fire trucks that were shipped all over the
world. As the quote above describes, the company took
great pride in their work.

 August 31, 1954 Hurricane Carol
- Wareham, MA
"The fireman used saltwater pumped from the street; and
all who witnessed the gallant manner of these men in the performance
of their duty, have something to remember. Shoulder high in water,
pulling hose, climbing ladders and holding hose nozzles until
the heat became so intense that a few jumped from the roof into
the water on the street, a performance that rated the cover of
a book..." - Henning Newman, Board of Water Commisioners
1955
