That is a 41-46/47 Chevrolet, there is no model version of that cab in resin or plastic that I know of. If you find one please show it off because I want one too.

RMR doesn't actually have a 47 like that. 1947 was a transitional year, early 47 is like the truck evilone posted, late 47 is the later 48-55 style. I ordered some stuff from him last year and he said he basically put the same truck twice by mistake, he has it listed as a 47 and as a 48-50 but its the same casting.

Danbury mint made a '38 GMG very similar to that style. Look on eBay, keep your eye open for damaged, missing the box or some accessories and they will be a lot cheaper.

I got this one way cheaper than a resin kit. It doesn't hurt so much to modify a broken DM! (picture of it on monitor)

They also made a red Budwieser truck and a dark blue"DM" flatbed car carrier. Seems the Coke trucks are cheapest, then the Buds. Be patient and wait for a better deal.

Thank you and curse you, now I have something else to find.

I could find a use for a couple of those, but I love all old cab overs, just so odd looking.

Another funky cabover to keep in mind is the White. (55, I think)

There are strait truck versions; Coke, Bud, plus a Christmas version, much cheaper than this carrier, currently on eBay, will close for. I picked up a yellow Coke truck for less than $50 including shipping. It had no box, that's the type to look for. Much better prices when something is not there, or lightly damaged.

I wasn't planning on selling it, e-o. In fact, I already took that gaudy Coke body off of it, planning a flatbed or something else. But be patient and watch eBay (I know there's a stink over new policies) Again, look for damaged or no box, etc.

I don't know if they are still aroound or not but Mill City Replica's used to offer several C.O.E. s they might have something that would work. I built the 40 ford coe they had and it was a nice clean casting.
