The resin I'll need, it seems, is this obsolete Modelhaus Dodge long-wide bed pickup, but if this doesn't get results, I'm giving up after three tries.  I want to convert it into a 3/4 Ton 4x4 to replicate the last USFS Class IV fire tanker I was foreman on, in 1968.  (Actually, ours was earlier, I think, more like '61.)  It had bold 'Power Wagon' chrome letters on both hood sides, and tall, skinny stock steel wheels, a 318-cu.in. V-8, 100-gallon water tank (as I recall) with 'lunger engine/pump and one 2.4" rubber-hose live reel.  Motorola radio, took box and Handyman jack, with Barden bumper.  Any hopes, out there?  Ole' Wick, age 79 and counting....

if you look in the aftermarket section, theres a member printing these and i'm sure they could mix and match the files to get the version you need

Les, thanks, I'll follow up on that suggestion!  OC, I have no printing capabilites, and not very adept at resin casting!  The earlier cab with the late bed would get'r done!  

My little bro had to pick up a train crew at their coffee shop the first day he worked for the old Southenr Pacific, and his wet boot slipped off the'crummy' clutch as he parked it, running right into the exterior wall!  Our USFS didn't use crew-cabs, but the local RR and loggers in N CA did.  Wick
