Dodge Crane Truck with Additional Details

[Tinman]

I've always liked the Matchbox 63c Dodge Crane truck and personally feel it's the best of all the Dodge trucks. I decided to give one some wheel hubs and tires for more detail. I decided to keep going with the detailing and branded it for LAING and added additional details by the way of decals.

That's very nice and a subtle transformation the yellow hubs really brighten it up , a route Lesney should have gone

I agree with "Fixer", this has certainly got Lesney written all over it.

Wow, that's much better.

Amazing what a few decals can do. I like the wheels as well but the decals is what does it for me.

Very nice indeed, the hubs and decals are perfect. They really do lift the appearance of this model and as others have said, It looks very Lesney-like.

It looks like the decal on the cab door may be a little bit crooked and I like it that way. When all is said and done, it's a toy and thousands of similar toys were turned out by Lesney every week with less than perfect quality control. The little imperfections bring them to life for me. It's like when you see someone restore a toy and the repaint the headlights perfectly round and exactly on center. And it looks completely like a restored model. Sometimes those ladies were lucky if the mask was centered halfway over the target.
