Menard's M&M trucks

Did you remove the M & M and make a new decal?

The M&M writing on the body is a sticker   Peeled it off with a razor blade and cleaned it up with goof off   The writing on the doors comes off with goof off   Made the new decals with Micro Mark decal paper

Thank you.

Nice job. I like what you have done.

Ben , very nicely done !

Did you get the decals at Dozers on Dekalb ave ? LOL

Truck too modern for me, but l like your relettering job! Like to see an article on various techniques for that in the magazine.

This old ad is what I used as a guide

Two of the fleet are done

I just removed the M & M sign with no problem. Need to order more trucks for my particular application.

Figures it has to do with BEER

@bluelinec4_ - Great work, the use of the vintage ad was really smart.  That ad looks to be about 1950's from the clothes everyone is wearing.  Super job!

Miss Rheingold Ann Hogan was from 1952    The White 3000 truck was produced from 1949- 1965  I wish some diecast company would make that model or The White Compact

Great job! Very creative!

Great idea!

Good thing you found them Ben, the Rheingold fleet in Paterson couldn't compete with the Ballantine bullies on the other side of town.
