That is an awesome job on that. If I only had the room and money for more planes... Thats a cool truck too, I wonder what brand. I'll have to look into it.

I've seen that truck in original paint (civilian) before, but a quick search of die-cast sites didn't turn it up. Great paint and custom job, but notice it's a bit too small, probably 1:24. It would be a tight fit for a 1:18 figure in that cab! :wink:

UPDATE - found one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 26425&rd=1

Hmmm, I might try to get one of these. It might not be the right scale but with some work it can look good. Since its too small it may look good in the background of a diorama.

There are 1/18 or close to 1/18 die cast fuel trucks available from Solido and probably other companies as well. They are based on pick up truck chassis from the 30's and 40's.

Search on ebay for '1/18 truck' and 'solido truck' and you should find some.
