A Ford Pick-up as a glass delivery truck

This is the restoration of a Matchbox Lesney Superfast MB-06 A Ford Pick-up. It is a permanent problem with those model cars which used to have special plastic parts, but those parts are missing or damaged. What shell I do with the Ford F-100 Pick-up without its white canopy? Formerly I restored a yellow one, where the peoblem was the same. Then I created a flower delivery truck from it. But what will deliver now?


I got it! It will serve as a glass transporter pick-up truck! First of all I have to build a proper stand for the glass, which fits perfectly into its cargo compartment and it souldn't move, but small enough that I could palce the car (with the stand) into its box.


The stand consists of rest parts of plastic model houses of H0 scale. What a good thing, that I kept them, so I can use them for several things to replace or create for my 1/64 scale cars!



When the glass arrived I canged the wheels, too:
