Corvair underground has this kit, I imagine Clarks does too. This is a resin
reproduction of a kit which was put out by a fly by night company called
Premier. It was not a very good kit, and not in the traditional 1/24th scale
but in approximately 1/43rd. Don't be too stocked at price of this kit.
Before the issue of the repro kit, originals were going for over $300.

There are other FC's available, but not in kit form. Structo is the most
common for a rampside, with or without a camper, also a School bus van. Andy
Gard made a kennel truck, one on ebay now. and there are several variations
on the van which were produced in lithographed tin by 2 different Japanese
companies variations are mostly, in the advertising on the van. There is
also a Japanese tin Rampside which is very hard to come by.
