Here is some more of the wonder models made by a good friend of my Dave. These trucks are over the last 35 years of his life these are only a very few that he made as some of them are still in storage and the rest are spread through out the family..They are very close to the 1/14 scale and all paint jobs are by hand some trucks the doors do open and some have dashes and seats in them also..

Enjoy..
