I got the newest release of Revell's wrecker for Christmas, and just finished it today. Its completely OOB and has Duplicolor paint, I really like the way this one came out. All comments and criticism welcome.

Good looking wrecker. The decals loking really good!

Is it also a snap kit like the "orange" issue? If i see the enginebay, it looks so.

pretty sweet build. the engine looks like it was made a little on the cheap side with the valve covers molded to the intake but everything else is great man

Are those the kit decals? Looks a lot better than the original peel & stick stickers.

Yes they are the kits waterslide decals

No the newest release is not a snap kit but I can definitely tell it used to be

Great wrecker! It looks like Revell improved this kit since they reissud the orange model, which I have. I may have to get this one, too. A wrecker is my favorite kind of truck and I love G.M. trucks. You did a fine job on this one! B)

nice build. I am waiting for the snow plow version. although i am in Chicago, a snow plow so far would be out of place....no snow?!?!?!

Cole, do have some other photos of the wrecker, maybe we could use on the main web site under the kit reviews?

Need some photos that have more depth of field, in focus from front to back.

Let me know if you would like to do this.

Thanks.

Sorry just seen this, Yes i would love to have this on the main website, but everytime i take a picture the focus is lost in the back, how can I fix this?

Take a higher resolution from farther away and crop it down to size. From a greater distance, the camera will focus on the whole truck rather than just what's in the center of the viewfinder.

Nice truck, by the way!
