Real or Model #227 FINISHED!

[Harry P.]

How about this one? Real or model?

The answer: MODEL!

[DonW]

It looks real but there's something not quite right about the bull bar and the front shocker is too clean so I'll say model.

[crazyjim]

I'll say model because I can't see tire tracks in the sand - or on the tires.

[DonW]

..and it's very big sand!

[skymnky721]

Thats a tough one,,the shadow on the ground looks like real ,,but no sand on tires,,,,hummm,,but the reflection of the sun on the windshield does line up pretty closely to the shadow below,,so Im gonna guess ,,real truck.

[timc]

I'm gonna say model on this one.

Real. There are tracks ahead of rear wheels, and sand on front tires. Tire tracks can be brushed away.

[kelson]

It looks Real to me.

[DynoMight]

Going against the grain and hitting real..

My Vote is for a Model . I lived in the Salt Belt . Japan Inc so called Steel Evaporates quite differently than US Steel . The Vehicle shown here shows abuse and weatherized paint . Obvious from lack of washing . Exposed to Salt (Sea Spray) from Coastal Use rusts the Bottom . This shows a solid , not oxidize lower body / frame . The Snorkle for underwater operation is a nice touch . I had to work on one of these once or twice . Correct me if I am wrong . Is not the Carburetor / Intake located on the Left side of the Engine Compartment ? Conveniently along with the Steering Gear Box - linkage and Starter competing for space ?? This overcrowding is just so typical with Japan Inc to induce scraping of flesh of anyone attempting any and all repairs . Clean Tires , clean sand = Photobucket to me . Thanx ..

I'm going to say it's a real model I'm thinking radio controlled.

[Sixties Sam]

I'm guessing model, a good one!

[Pete J.]

I'm going with model on this one. I have to agree with others, wrong tires for the beach and the paint is too even for a beach environment. The rust looks a little to even and with that much rust I would expect to see some holes also.

Two words: HUGE sand!
