Collecting model vehicles
#18
Some time ago Classic Mttal Works realeased the 41's Chevy truck.
Hurray, i thought a 1940's truck!
But i found it misproportionated. The box van too width, the wheels too big in seize for 3-4ton payload truck.

So i grab my saw and cut the box into triples. A stripe of app. 3mm was removed and the two halves were glued together again on a new bottom plate. The box is now somewhat smaller.
There were also smaller wheels mounted coressponding better with the model.

Rear viev. The rear platform was removed according to prototype photos. Some paint has still to be added.
