These 1/18 GMC panel vans were offered by Matchbox Collectables in Coca Cola livery many years ago. The front fender wheel openings were, unfortunately, a bit oversize, and I'm never a big fan of soft drink graphics on models, so the model was stripped, fender openings reproportioned, and the truck repainted ( automotive basecoat/clearcoat) in then factory available 'Omaha Orange and Ivory'. These modifications were all done at least a decade ago and recently photographed.

Great job done! I would love to see this panel done in 1:43 scale as well.

It's a big moment when we get to see the works of the Read Brothers. Can't wait to see what's next.
