Autocar dump coming this summer

It would be nice...but the original issue was in 1971 and as far as I know it has never been reissued, so they have to find the tooling for the mixer and the other parts if it still exists and get licensing for it.

Just a decent size of rubber all around , get those low rider rubber off it lol

But everyone has a look their after , I've been hanging around Chris D too long 

12R24 or 14R24 tires would be great on this kit.

I'm planning on cases of this release.  This kit is a good one to build as an Autocar but also makes a great parts donor with the dump box, Rockwell 6-rod rear suspension, front float tires, HD front springs, and 6-spoke front/5-spoke rear wheels.

I have one of the previous reissues of this, and I was thinking that since the decals are for a fictional trucking company in Ardmore, PA, I should probably build this as a coal hauler.  I know in some areas of PA you can't drive down the street without seeing a coal truck.  Kind of like logging trucks in central Louisiana.
