Does anyone know what model of truck this is based on? Looks like they mounted their Chevy pickup bed on the back of a tractor trailer cab...

It was also made by Zima... not sure which came first as they both were from the same era and do not look the same.

Support your local demo derby.

An impressive model and pic Jim. Did Kenner Fast also issue this same truck or a similar one?

Neat truck! I've only seen one or two listed and I always get outbid. Interesting model.

I don't think Kenner did this one Zach...the pickup I recall in that line had a motor through the hood, but otherwise looked fairly stock. Might have had stacked exhaust too, come to think of it, but it definitely did not have the "semi" nose.

Some time back I saw where someone had taken an old 60's Mack daycab and mounted it on a Chevy Dually chassis, turned out pretty nice. Would have liked to have had the money then to make an honest offer.

This is a new one on me. Interesting pick up variation, I'll give it that.

I like the little panels on the bed of the Zima version, but the Yat Ming casting is better by a wide margin.
