I remember seeing these everywhere when I was a kid. I thought they were so ugly, but 35 years later they're not so bad. This was built mostly out of the box, but I did scratchbuild a 5 speed trans and shifter. Paint is Tamiya and Krylon shortcuts. The trailer is the Amt/Imc autoworld 36 footer used as a placeholder.

Nice clean build. Your right these were everywhere back in the day. I read a article in Over Drive Magazine how Phil Jensen build one like yours back in 1973 so they been around for a long time. Also I have seen ads that were in the 1960s of the Roadway Ford C trucks Thanks for sharing.

Wow! Immaculate build Randy. I always look at several things (Sorry - can’t help myself) as indicators of a superb build - paint finish/borders between colours. Crisp window gasket edges. Everything lines up and is square. Detailing seamlessly fits into the overall model. You hit each one 10/10 - a pleasure to look at. Thanks for sharing it with us.
