Description: 1982 First Hess Truck A classic in more ways than one, the "First Hess Truck" ranks among the most finely detailed toy trucks in the series. It is based on the secondhand six-wheeled Chevy fuel delivery truck that company founder Leon Hess drove when he started the company in 1933, so it is, quite literally, the first Hess truck. This eleven-inch toy is painted in the original Hess quartet of colors and filled with marvelous features - opening doors that reveal the cab interior, working lights, rubber foot treads at the door, and a rubber oil-delivery hose that spools and unspools. Lights still work and everything is intact except two pieces of the handles on the top (see pictures). Normal signs of fading and wear. This belonged to my husband and he played with it as a child. Takes 1 D battery (not included)
