Crazy Ed Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 I'm sure it's a GM product from ~'68 - '70. Also need to know if there is a Kit in 1/24-5 of it. http://public.fotki.com/CrazyEd/cab/cab.html Thanks for looking and any information. Ed
James W Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 There have been a couple kits that would work as a starting point, but they are all pickups. You will need to scratch build the front fenders and grill/hood. AMT has had Chevrolet and even GMC pickup kits that have the correct cab.
steven Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 Hi this is Steven It looks like a chevy C - 40 . It was a 1 1/2 ton truck. All of the ones I have seen have been from the 1967 to 1972 model years. I havent seen any model kits of this truck in resin or plastic. If you want to do some research and model body work you might be able to make one from 2 chevy pickup kits.
Crazy Ed Posted April 14, 2009 Author Posted April 14, 2009 James and Steven, Thank You Both. Looks like it's a '70 C40. Now the Search Begins. Ed
Karmodeler2 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 James and Steven, Thank You Both. Looks like it's a '70 C40. Now the Search Begins. Ed Modelhaus has one that is a resin 1&1/2 ton truck that is the light to medium duty truck. All the work is done for you is he still has them. David

David The Modelhaus kit is the '64-'66 C-series, same size, but a little older. Nice kit! I have a couple of them in progress, here's one of them: Lee

mrglubaum Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Ooo! I like it. Tim Thanks, Tim! I have a more recent picture! I'm kinda stuck there, wondering if I should weather it. One of the smoothest, shiniest paint jobs I've ever done, and it's on a dang cement truck! I guess I have to weather it at least a little bit, what a shame! Lee
