What about the only vehicle that really mattered?

Lee, Showcase makes the GH truck.

The rescue dates to 1969 but the light package is consistant with late 1970's to 1980's. Thee lasted into the early 1990's. A few still run today but most have been replaced by "Comercial Chassis" type.

$20 is not a bad price. This truck has more parts then many freight cars.
