I've got a ~reverse~ mention of a truck here...

Why? Its a model of a Semi used in a movie. Punisher (1989) w/ Dolph Lundgren. He uses it to deliver a bottle of booze to his source, 'Shake'.

As it came out in '89, I'd guess its a Wedico, NOT a Tamiya King Hauler (#56301 is dated July '93) Its got a load-bed, not a 5th wheel BUT it does have a Tamiya-style bull-bar.

Anyone wants a few pics, I can try to get a frame-cap off my movie.

I remember this movie, and the RC truck! Definitely a Wedico conventional, previous to the Peterbilt models. I was to young to have any expensive models like that, back then, but I sure thought it was neat to see a radio controlled semi truck of any kind.
