Long overdue,
very
mainstream,
yes, it's another
Chevy, it's a
pickup, wow!!!
The '41 Chevy
comes from
those little p/u
elves at DM
and is another winner. Finished in Export Blue with black
fenders, set off with very upscale (from a '41 Chevy Special
Deluxe) set of wheel sets and whitewall tires, this little beast is an
attention grabber from the word GO. Typical DM attention to
detail and build quality, faithful replication (even the windshield
pivots for extra ventilation), and seamless design draw your eye
to this model no matter how many other replicas surround it on
the shelf. The silver & red accent stripe just finishes the job.
I won't say this is DM's "best Pickup yet" because they're ALL
EXCELLENT and DIFFERENT. Pickups are DM's forte;
they're incredibly life-like and addictive (this from yours truly
who, heretofore, couldn't stand pickups...and now owns no less
than 15 of them!!!), so to say this is a must have piece will only
depend on the size of your model budget.... But if there's any
way to squeeze in just one more pickup, then...you just might
want to give this one some serious thought!!!

Cautions from Mike Martin: The chrome vents along side of
hood seems a bit rough. The little reflectors (or lights) over the
front headlamps seem a little poor in detail. They look like a
touch of paint as opposed to actual lights. The wood grain detail
on the bed of the truck is good but it seems a wood color like
dark brown would have looked more realistic. (However...)
Great little memory car for me. I would buy it on that basis
alone. The issue price is $118 + S&H. (06/26/1998)
