1978 Hess Toy Truck In Original Box With Insert.
Vintage Collectible 1978 Hess Toy Truck In Original Box With Insert.
A chrome grill and bright red wheels are outstanding features on the 1978 Hess Truck Oil Tanker. Even detail on the tires was enhanced with lettering that read, “Amerada Hess.” Dark green, white, and yellow color accents mark the livery on this attractive truck. There are Hess decals on the rear and sides of the trailer and the tractor doors. In addition to working headlights and taillights there was a removable hose on the tanker trailer. There were 600.000 of these toys made in 1978. The 1978 holiday season offered a slightly different version of the prior year's model. The truck has the same lights and design but the lettering in the Hess logo is bolder and at the back of the truck.
Not To Be Confused With The 1984 Bank model. This Truck Is In Good Collectible Condition.
