Van body truck, Roco Minitanks, sort of. I have been gathering up the hanger queens and making them into something. This little truck is one of those. It is a body and a cab that have languished in the collection spares box separately for over 20 years.

Now it's time to bring them together. Little vans of all kinds are found on Army bases and in armies in the field. Always something to be repaired, refurbished, replenished, or rehabilitated.

Leave a comment on the blog, I am trying to get readership back up to 250 per posting.

Sounds like a bad rock cover band.

Wasn't Rocco van Bodytruck a Dutch merchant who became a pirate and terrorized the Java Sea in the 1690s?
