With a wheelbase of 102" and 30" tires, the 1916 Autocar was small by today's standards, but considered to be a large truck in 1916. The model was constructed in 2002 based on scale plans published by Precision Scale. It was made of styrene and brass, with a little scale lumber used for the side boards on the cargo box. The tires were made up by modifying Circus Craft Wagon Wheels. The marker lamps are also by Precision Scale, and the figure is by Preiser.
