  2. Jon, that truck stared off as a Tonka Truck! I actually spoke to the guy who built it, but I'll be darned if i can remember his name,Duuuhhhh! But he had a stock truck right next to it as a comparison. The hand formed ALL the chrome on it from aluminum! He filed the peices into the proper shape,then POLISHED EACH peice by hand! It looks good in the pics, but it's even COOLER in real life!! Jeeze I wish I could remember his name, he was such a nice guy. He answered ALL my questions with a smile,and was really cool in the way he described building it! It's a REAL nice model!
