This was actually completed sometime in August, but here it is finally being posted.
This is the ancient Airfix 1/76 scale Russian Zil SAM-2 transport truck.I built it all out of the box and will hopefully someday be added to my SAM-2 layout:

Nice finish Mark. You made the ancient Airfix SA-2 look good. Can’t wait to see that SAM site project of yours.

Thank guys for the awesome replies! I never get notifications via E-mail that a reply has been posted to threads I'm watching so sometimes I forget to come here.
Stuart it is an old kit and on some ways it dies show it's age. Still, I've wanted one of these in my collection since I was a kid, so now that wish has finally been fulfilled. Thank you for the compliments!
Lyle, thank you! I agree, there's just something about them. That's why I'd dreamed of getting one of these for decades.
Thank you Gary!
Thank you Carlos! I'm hoping I can get one done; the layout is gonna take some space. I'm planning on doing it in Modules, but still; I have to have a place to store it!
