The main reason for building this model was the fact that the
original '23 Fruitwagon from AMT was (and still is) a rare kit. So I
decided to build my own version just in case I couldn't get my hands
on the original AMT kit.
I started with a badly built 1923 Delivery Van. The rear side panels
were removed and the fruitwagon parts (fruit stand floor, rear panel
and panel behind the driver) were added using 1mm plastic.
The fruit stand was constructed from wood.
The scales are a ready bought item but altered to fit in the space
under the fruit stand. A few weights were made from plastic spare
material and needle pins. Very small stuff...
The three 'canvas' curtains and the curved reinforcements you see on
the rear vertical struts are spare parts from a Depot Hack kit which
was built as an Express Wagon.
And most of the fruit (the red, green, yellow, and orange) are the
glass heads of needles.
The 'MacDonald's Fruit' signs were designed by me and printed on
glossy paper using a high quality color laser printer.
