Canvas truck
Interesting vehicle here, Indiana Jones truck, but with a canvas roof, not plastic, not seen these about before.

Re: Canvas truck
I bought one of these in the woolies sale !
canvas back .... never seen a plastic one ?
I wasnt aware there were 2 different ones ?
I think the one I bought was from raiders of the lost ark, its the streets of cairo version.

Re: Canvas truck
there is a plastic framework beneath the canvas, however the canvas is very tight fitting and I dont want to take it off because I bought it for my son !The Kraken Wakes wrote:great, thenks for the pic... can the canvas supports stay on the truck with the canvas off?

Re: Canvas truck
just had a second look, and in some places the canvas appears to be sewn around the frame so may need to be unpicked to remove !

Re: Canvas truck
The plastic cover (moulded) is from the first release - it was later changed to a canvas cover for subsequent releases (so yes, two versions)
