Most garbage trucks are bent, dirty and…full of garbage, but not Monogram’s GARBAGE TRUCK! This zany and unusual Rod is a shiny custom machine with all the latest speed goodies plus all the equipment needed for a swinging beach party. The kit even includes a mod swinging trio complete with a Go-Go Girl vocalist! If you dig fun kits, you’ll dig the GARBAGE TRUCK. It’s The Boss!\u00c2\u00a0 Monogram Models owes much of its success in the 1960s and \u00e2\u20ac\u212270s to the inspiring and creative designer Tom Daniel. Chances are you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen something that has been graced with the wild, distinctive \u00e2\u20ac\u0153TD\u00e2\u20ac\u009d touch. Anyone who built model kits during Daniel\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time with Monogram, or read Hot Rod, Car Craft, or Rod & Custom, or watched \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The Munsters\u00e2\u20ac\u009d on television has seen his work. Daniel\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s designs have influenced several generations of model and full-scale hot-rod builders.\u00c2\u00a0 Monogram was delighted by the success of the first kit design Tom produced and went on to commission him to create more than 75 other designs between 1968 and 1975.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The name and idea for this one originated at Monogram, and I was called in to enhance the design and add snappy details like the lil’ rock group, decals, etc. Left to my own devices, I probably never would have initiated a garbage truck.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Tom Daniel\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Quote.<\/p>\n

For the modeler:<\/strong> This review is based on the GARBAGE TRUCK by Tom Daniel Revell # 85-4198 model kit. This kit is Skill level 2 for intermediate builder and contains 57 parts. The kit is molded in White and Chrome and has Vinyl Tires. This kit has seen very few different box-art designs over the years but has had multiple re-issues and is a 100% Reissue (Re-Pop). The original kit was released in 1968 and has had almost no changes in any releases after that. The copyright stamp on the chassis reads 1968 and the decals read 2014, so this is still based on the original molds. The buildup on this kit is 100% all exterior looks; there is no motor or detailed undercarriage. The suspension is basic. The cab is a multi-part unit and everything mounts to it aside from the seats. The trash body is also multi-piece and aside from the surfboards the accessories are molded in place. The mini band members are cool; you get a girl and two identical guy figures. The decals are new Revell quality and they replicate the originals that came in the kit.\u00c2\u00a0 Overall dimensions of the finished build are: Length: 6-7\/8″, Width: 3-1\/8″, Height: 4-7\/8″.<\/p>\n
