David Flynn recently finished this pair of oil distributor delivery tank trucks; a late 1960s International CO-1900 and a late '60s Ford C-600. The recent International was built in the late '80s by mounting a Wiking IH tow truck cab on a Mercedes tank truck chassis.  In the past month David rebuilt it by adding details, homemade decals, and Ralph Ratcliffe Models cast spoke wheels. To make his model look more prototypical, David filed off the back of the front fenders and the cab now sits higher above the wheels. 
The Ford was made by mounting a Wiking tank on an Athearn Ford C chassis. David's brothers' oil business had two of these though the tanks were slightly different.
