GUY WARRIOR TRUCK / DUMP TRUCK 6X4 Husky approx. 1965 Red 1:80

Diecast model made from a metal casting with plastic wheels, presenting a simple, functional 6x4 truck design. The bright red body contrasts with the silver bumper, black windows and white wheel centres, which feature a characteristic chrome ring. The casting contains no glass; the windows are painted black, while clearly defined grooves have been applied to many of the raised details on the body, suggesting a machine-based production process. The long bonnet, split windscreen and deep visor above the windscreen refer to American trucks from the late 1940s and 1950s. Six wheels on three axles, a tall tipper body and the visor above the windscreen create a distinctive profile. The model comes from a cheaper Hong Kong market range from the 1960s–1970s, as confirmed by its approximately 1:80 scale and 78 mm length. This is a typical diecast model, made without glazing and intended for simple, budget collector sets; nevertheless, it has a unique style and may provide an interesting point of reference in any collection.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
