Started life as a Monogram PaddyWagon , a cut here a cut there flip a few things around add a J/F resin tank and wala ......

I wanted a something that was a little different than the LiL' Gasser showrod. With the resin tank this build weighs in at .0.7.5 ounces. The normal PaddyWagon weighs in at just under 0.4 ounces. Decals were parts box ,everything else except the tank is Monogram PaddyWagon. The tank ribs are done in gold foil to contiue the bright trim . Red lights are faux jewels.

Those all came out great. I've got a few junkers of that kit and was undecided what to do with them - until now!

You're three variations gave me the inspiration to try something different with mine. Maybe a pickup, a Suburban, circus wagon or a hearse?

With your lettering saying "this tank" and "that tank", maybe the name of the company should be "Tanks-a-Lot" fuel delivery. Just a thought.

Really like what you made out of the scrapes you had to start with. This and your others show a lot of creativity, and the finishes all look great. I now would look at this, and similar kits in a whole new light.

Very well done Ken !  I was a little worried that JF tank would be way too big for your build but it looks just right too me , and all of the gold accent really works with that color ! :)

Turned out great. Followed the WIP thought process with great interest. My only question is what the heck are you hauling! Radioactive and explosive...YIKES ?
