krishna.iskandana Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Hello again guys, This time I will post a reissued version of a classic kit from tamiya, a Toyota Hi Ace Quick Delivery Lorry Truck. I built this as an UPS delivery truck with the additional UPS decal set which I bought online. Let me know what you think and thanks for looking. Best Regards Krishna Iskandana Perth, Western Australia Jakarta, Indonesia
Chillyb1 Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 This is my all-time favorite kit. I can't believe Tamiya reissued it. I've got a bunch in the stash that I've been accumulating via eBay and even in the occasional hobby shop. Can you show us what decals come with the reissue?
Tom Geiger Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Very nice. I love light commercial subjects and this is a cool one.
george 53 Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 It's been re issued? I got this rascal about 10 years ago for 10 bucks! It's cute!
crazyjim Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Very nice even though it looks out of proportion.
the goon Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Very nice Dimensions do look a little off. Mark
PappyD340 Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Real NICE, but I thought it looked a little unproportional too!!
Chillyb1 Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 The illusion of disproportionality is probably created by the different wheel sizes, large in front and small in back. That combined with the fact that it is short, tall, and narrow accentuates the misperception.
slusher Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Very nice and sharp build Krishna, you always do outstanding work. l like it..
charlie8575 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Most interesting; I would suppose that UPS uses those overseas, as in the U.S., they have their own custom-built trucks, I believe by Grumman. Charlie Larkin

I cant because I threw the decal set away, but the decal set that came with the kit consists of tamiya logos and the tamiya 4wd mini series decals.

Thanks anyway. I'm pretty sure the reissue of the kit has some decals that are different from the original ones that I have. I'm afraid that the ones I have are too old to be of any use. Still, a very cool build of a very cool little truck.

Tom Geiger Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Krishna, do you go to Super Model Car Sunday in Perth? I know the folks involved in starting and running it.
