Robert Jarvis USAF fire protection models

Years ago Robert Jarvis released some free models on his website .including FDNY Rescue 1 they look like 1/100 scale . Are they 1/100 scale?. I was planning on mating the older rescue 1 bodies on early GMC or Chevy FDS models

Ok, found his site

It looks like all his FDNY kits are repaints from FDS kits, with all FDS branding removed, and no reference given to FDS and his designs

As for the USAF kits, the Chief's truck, and the R2 rescue truck are repaints of the Ed Bertsky Dodge M-37 kit, using the original build diagrams, and no reference to Ed's original design

You can take a look at Úvod - Minimodel, as that is where most of the FDNY i know are

One of the buses in the Ambulance set is from papertoys.com and he kept that attribution in tact
