I wanted to do this one for a long time, a fictional Carsini winery truck from the ´Columbo´ crime series.

The Chevy cab and engine are from the amt kit and these great looking wheels are from scenes unlimited. I stole the chassis from the Revell Opel Blitz kit.

Everything else is from the partsbox or scratchbuilt from Evergreen styrene and real wood.

My compliments on a very realistic model! Amazing workmanship on the stakebed and the effective weathering on the cab and body! You have some great woodworking skills!

Love it, especially the "thriftmaster six"!  Where can I get one? Not familiar with the kits mentioned.

Don, i used this AMT kit for this one, comes with the Thrift Master inline six.

I changed one thing on the engine: i installed an oilfillercap to the valvecover instead of the oilfiller tube on the side of the engine.

Nice, detailed rig  Twisted wires in engine bay... even detailed the hood latch. And, just enough grime, wear and tear.
