1975 GMC 6000 Grain Truck (1:16) by Highway 61
Item Number: HIW50509Die-Cast Promotions announces the release of their big 1/16 scale die-cast metal 1975 GMC 6000 Grain Trucks! The GMC 6000 Series set the standard for short-cab trucks in the mid 1970s. The 97-1/2? BBC (Bumper-to-Back-of-Cab) allowed bigger payload, longer body or trailer, good weight distribution and ease of maneuvering. Short-hood design aided down-front visibility as well, and put the 230 horsepower, 427 V-8 engine components within easy reach for maintenance and repair. As lasting tribute to the rugged engineering of the GMC version 6000 Sierra and companion Chevy C-65 model, is that many of these trucks are still on the job today! The Highway 61 Collectibles GMC 6000 Series Grain Truck is a highly- detailed (1:16) replica over 18-1/2? long. Features include operating dump bed with opening tailgate, steerable front wheels, opening hood and doors, fully plumbed and wired 427 ?big-block? V-8 engine, and soft mudflaps.
