SKU CH-E871-ZECBM

  • 1:48 scale delivers authentic 1956 tanker detail
  • 61 green and clear parts build a complete model
  • Detachable trailer with opening gas doors adds realism
  • Tilting cab reveals detailed engine and interior
  • Two figures and dual Sinclair or U.S. Army decals included

Scale & Heritage

This 1:48 scale kit reissues a 1956 gasoline tanker model for hobbyists who value vintage subjects. It arrives new in the box with 61 parts moulded in green and clear plastic. The finished model measures 10.25 inches long and includes markings for Sinclair and U.S. Army liveries. Skill level 2 suits modellers with some prior experience.

Build Experience

Assembly follows a traditional glue-together process with a detachable trailer and a tilting front cab that reveals a detailed engine and interior. Builders will fit opening gas compartment doors on the trailer, add two figures with a sign and install the supplied clear window parts. The parts count keeps the project manageable over a few evenings without overwhelming a level-two builder.

Upgrade Context

The reissue replaces the long-unavailable original release and adds clear window parts that were absent in 1956. It suits collectors completing a period fuel-transport display or modellers moving up from snap-fit kits to a more detailed glue build. Buyers seeking a larger scale, a modern tanker subject or a motorised model will not find those features here.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does this gasoline tanker kit produce while I assemble it all day?

The kit is a static 1:48 scale model with 61 plastic parts and no motor, so it generates no heat, noise or power draw during assembly.

What tools or supplies do I already need to finish this 1956 reissue tanker kit?

You will need plastic cement or glue, hobby knives or sprue cutters, and paint or brushes if you want to apply the Sinclair and U.S. Army markings.

Will the 10.25-inch trailer and cab fit on my existing 1:48 scale diorama base?

Yes, the model is moulded to 1:48 scale and measures 10.25 inches long, so it matches other 1:48 vehicles and scenery you may already own.
