Here's one that would be a cool 4x4 model, but it would take some work... It appears to be a modified AMT '73-'79 kit as far as the cab goes (consistent with 1:1, as the '73-'79 models were, essentially, re-skinned '67-'72's), but the dash and interior are all wrong for the older style truck- they're carryover from the later AMT kits. The added details like the hood-mounted side marker/nameplates are lackadaisical at best- the ones on mine will be meeting "Mr. Gillette" pretty soon! The castings are also a bit rough, as has become all too common on R&R's stuff the last few years. With a little work, you could build any number of '67-'72 Effies out of this one kit, in any number of variations. It's a bit rough, but it looks like a lot of fun!

Yeah- this is a later casting of his... lots of casting blemishes and such. I'm thinking of making a beater out of it!
