Lee Drennen Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I bought this kit off EBay about 2 yrs ago and this kit brings back a lot of memories to me. I think it was Christmas of 1979 Mom and Dad got this kit for me and my brother Bill got me the GMC General the same Christmas I have a pic of them some where that my mom took of them when I finished them. They were my first model trucks.That was 40yrs ago so I thought I would build one for the Anniversary of this first model truck I got. I will be adding some spoke wheels and a tarp and a headache rack to this build. Hope you will follow along. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertModeler85 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 What yellow did you use on your Bison? I really love it! Those white spoke wheels really pop! Excellent job! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a Krylon color. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottsGT Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Thanks for posting this. You just took me down a rabbit hole of memory lane. I saw your build and had to Google the one and only semi truck/trailer I built as a kid. I think I might have been 10-12 yo. I bought the old SONOCO trailer and truck combo kit. I see that Round 2 has reintroduced the tanker trailer once again. So tempted….but I know better. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
