Big 1974 Dodge truck from White Box
After a bit of a wait my 1974 Dodge dump truck showed up. This is billed as a D950 but my comprehensive Crestline Dodge truck book does not show a D950 with this cab and tandem rear wheels. Nevertheless its a nice model and appears to be true 43rd and nice details including a license plate from Carter country Kentucky . From what I can tell most Dodge trucks of this era and GVW used an earlier cab with the square swing out front fenders and a large rectangular radiator grill. Can anyone confirm?
(My camera seems to always turn darker reds into brighter orange reds, but the true color is red)

Nice, I like it...
IXO has several trucks that I am interested in, this Dodge being one of them. They have a new International KB-7 Dump Truck from 1948 and a 1949 Chevrolet 6400 Dropside.

Of course the majority of these come from the Brazilian or other South American collection. So I assume that there will be others coming as well. Like these

Thanks for that information.

I like the Chevy but could do without the visor and bumper stalks

They´re releasing several Brazilian versions in other colors, from cars to trucks. Since some of them are different from the "original" versions it may be confusing to know which models they are in truth...

That looks like a mobile pigeon loft!
