AMT Chev Bison

Took me a year, but it's done.  OOB, though I added the trailer connections, and plastic straws made better exhaust stacks than the original.

Yes, never give up, some models just take their time to finish, but looks great.
Not quite the vehicles we see in the UK - but obviously they are used for road trains over in OZ !

Thanks, it's LHD Ron, I did think of a fictional RHD conversion , but the dash is just too unsymetrical. For RHD trucks, I've got some Bedfords.

Bedfords ? .....what Bedfords ?.... scale models ? I know there are military kits in 1/24th....and the Esci models. Intriguing.

Emhar: I've built the tipper, the tanker is in the stash. They're a good kit. I've also built a resin Bedford CA van.

Ahhh yes, .....when I said Esci, I meant Emhar....but there you go.
They are very good kits, and I built one years ago when they first appeared. My tanker came with the optional dropside body if I recall.
But like I do, I sold it on. 🥴
I’d like to see the CA van, when you have time - now I don’t remember any CA resin kits, or do I ?? 🥴

You sure are finishing up a bunch of builds. I wish I could do the same.
Great job on this one. I built one years ago and really liked how it went together.

Thanks Sam. Sitting on a bunch of stalled builds then getting mojo back is a constant theme with me. I dragged a couple more cars down from the 'shelf of doom" yesterday.
