1/32 Monogram Chevrolet Bison Truck

[Lee Drennen]

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.

What yellow did you use on your Bison? I really love it! Those white spoke wheels really pop! Excellent job!

Very nicely done and an extra bonus for us with the bio - adds to the build.

Keep 'em comin

Thanks for the complement Peter. I need to revisit this build and finish it.

Thanks for the complement. I will have to look to see what paint I used. I think it was a Krylon color.

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.

Your most welcome Scott. I have another Chevy Bison I’m building I’ll get a thread going soon on it as well.
