Brand new 1955 chevy 2-ton stake , {first 5 pics}. Last 2,sixty years later as a clunker.This another kit issued by , they have even included the glass for the cab. which was never on the Revell kits. The kit is rather crude, but what could you expect from over sixty-year-old molds. I was going to do some kind of military version aka flight line, but I decided against that.
I have included my uncles original 1955 build which shows up on some of my previous articles.
