SKU# H1974-65
This edition of the Hess collection is very similar to the 1968 version with some slight changes. Truck has round feet on the landing gear rather that square that the 68’s & 69’s had. Tanker itself is more round than oval like on the 1968 and is also a lighter color green. Difference between the 1972 & 1974 Hess trucks can be seen by looking at the top of the catwalk of the tanker. The 1972 catwalk does not go to the end of the truck giving it a small lip at the end, 1974 catwalk extends to the very end of the tanker and then rounds off at the rear.
