I have had this for many years and decided to get started on it....pretty much a simple "slammer",very nice casting and details,had very little flash...woulda like to have made a stock version out of it but has had a lot of body mods to it...open for ideas.........

I have one too, but itsa SOLID chunk of about a pound of resin. Unless your a glutton for punishment, I'd build it as it is. It'd take a YEAR to even TRY to turn it into a fully detailed truck. Oh, an you BETTER wear a resperator, FORGET about a simple dust/painting mask!!!!

It looks like the Lincoln Dairy truck that left those glass bottles with cream at the top in our milk box on the front step .. but that's just me many years ago. ;)

Great looking casting. be interesting to see no matter what it becomes.

I saw a 1:1 built as a custom rod in "Classic Custom Trucks" a few years back. Stock body lines, big rims with rubber band tires & BRIGHT yellow. l've loved them ever since. I wanna see what you do with it.

I like the clean and slammed look but what if you did something a little different. Maybe do something like a delivery truck or and ice cream truck just laid out. I dunno, always thought they looked cool. Can't wait to see what you do with it.

Wow, that's one solid piece of resin. I've never seen this kit in person, it looks great.

You can even put the bodies in the back with all that extra room.

I have a couple of this kits... I'm working on one I started about 12 years ago, lost interest and now i'm trying to bring it back...

Out of the box it looks nice...

First time I've seen this one out of the box, might see about picking one up.

First thing that popped into my warped mind. With all those raised and recessed panel lines this one would look great as a woodgrained (with paint) woody and some trendy milk graphics. With all that area to cover it screams for something more than the sorta dated box graphics.
