In short, it's the old Ertl kit built box stock other than the air conditioner, aluminum smokestack, and decals. I also made new spindles as the diecast parts in the hit refused to cooperate with me.

Beautiful model! I always tried to get one of these. Didn't they have even a metal chassis?

Yes it does. I know that's off-putting to many modelers but I've had far worse-fitting plastic rails.

I have always liked this generation N-series trucks, they were made at a time where cabovers were taking over in Europe and were never as common as the F-series of the same vintage, but I remember seeing most of them as gravel trucks. Your build is very nicely done.

Looks great.
My dad used to drive one when i was little.
His was a gravel truck, it was the same yellow and had a silver dumpbed.
They had 2 trucks, the N10 and a F12 and they used both for what they were good for, the F12 could get in to tighter spaces then the N10 could thanks to it being a cabover.
Now that company and trucks are long gone.
