I love the shapes of those old trucks. Imagine what we could do with todays tech but just dont
don't you think that if the old style shapes were better, that the modern truck builders would still be using them …
it's the same with passenger vehicles, they all look alike (sorta) for the reason of gas milage above and beyond any other reason

I'd say "salty vinegar" but I don't know if that will harm the plastics.
Nice find. How big is that? Somehow it looks larger than normal Hot Wheels scale.

It would truly suck at a whole other level to drown inside a tank.

It's a style vs cost & function thing. The new vehicles do better in a wind tunnel and are cheaper to produce. I know why they do it. Not to mention crash standards, ect. Doesn't mean we couldn't do some beautiful pieces today if we wanted to.

Evaporust did the trick, I am happy!
It disassembled so the plastics didn't go in the bath and it is a Nylint truck at about 1/24 ish scale.

It should be to the right just above the drivers knee. If I remember correctly.
Sorry, no pic. I am on my phone.
