THE DUCK FROM EMERYVILLE


Late 1960's International DCF-405, also called Transtar-400, or Emeryville, or Donald Duck by some.. I scratchbuilt the cab and interior. Bobby Griffen at www.griffendesigns.com cast the cab for me. The Duck sits on a donor AMT Diamond Reo chassis, with componants from different International kits, including the Paystar for the mirrors, tanks, engine, horns and lighting came from an AMT Ford Short Hauler.
The truck wears Indianhead Tank Lines colors. A company that I saw often in growing up in Southern Wisconsin in the 70's.
