"Breaker one-nine... you got the road hog here.... how about it?" The two CB radio antennas on this Chevrolet Bisonare a sure sign that a "good buddy" is behind the wheel of this magnificent behemoth. The Chevy Bison was introduced in 1977, and the all-new big rig featured a lightweight aluminum cab, fiberglass hood and a choice of diesel engines. Chevy exited the heavy truck business in 1981, marking the end of the Bison's short but memorable production run.

The GMC General (also known as the Chevrolet Bison) is a heavy-duty (Class 8) truck[1] that was assembled by the GMC Truck and Coach Division of General Motors from 1977 to 1987. The largest conventional-cab truck ever produced by the company, the product line replaced the C/M 90/9500 trucks.
The Chevrolet Bison was discontinued after 1980 as GM ended the marketing of Chevrolet heavy trucks. In 1986, General Motors entered a joint venture with Volvo to produce heavy trucks, leading GMC to end production of the General conventional and Astro cabover in 1987.[2]
The GMC General and Chevrolet Bison were assembled in Pontiac, Michigan at Pontiac Central Assembly (alongside the Chevrolet Bruin and GMC/WhiteGMC Brigadier). As of current production, the 1987 GMC General and Brigadier are the final Class 8 conventional-cab trucks produced by General Motors.
Similar in layout to the Ford LTL-9000, International Harvester Transtar 4300, and Mack Super-Liner, the Chevrolet Bison and GMC General are Class 8 conventional trucks. Produced with an all-aluminum cab built by Budd, the trucks were available in many different combinations.[3] Two hood configurations were offered (108-inch or 116-inch BBC); along with a day cab, a 34-inch sleeper cab was offered, along with a walk-in sleeper cab (introduced in 1985).[3]
While no gasoline engines were available, several diesel powerplants were available, with the Detroit Diesel 6-71 (later replaced by the 6V92) as the standard engine. Alongside the 6-71, a buyer could choose the Cummins N-series, or Detroit Diesel 8V71 and 8V92.[3] Following its introduction in the GMC Astro, the Caterpillar 3406 was introduced in 1982.[3]
When introduced in 1977, the Bison/General were available from dealers as vehicle gliders.[3] Essentially a complete truck with the exception of the engine, transmission, and rear axles, the incomplete vehicles were designed for a dual purpose: to either reinstall an existing powertrain in a new truck or to allow for further customization not available from a dealership.
Following the GMC General, Volvo GM produced the WhiteGMC WC/WI Class 8 conventional, introduced in 1980 as the White Road Boss 2, the model line was produced through 2000 in various forms as a White, WhiteGMC, Autocar, and Volvo.
Wow,I still have the original kit built sitting on my shelf from when I was kid over 40years ago!
Love building the Big Rigs!!!!!!! 👍👍
I remember a kit just like this me and my dad put together, there was also the GMC 5 star general that was pretty much the same truck. As much as I love the detail and discipline of building the big 1/24th scale, I remember having a lot of these 132nd scale tractor and trailer kits me and my dad would put together all the time by stopping at Zayre's on the way home from his Jacksonville run in either the cab over Kenworths or Freightliners his company had that he drove for In the late 1970s and early 80s I love your channel it's inspiring me to get my building done and fun.
Favorite rig is the Smokey and the bandit truck! Good luck to all!
What a joy to see this truck again ! I built this as the Monogram kit back in ’82 and was my first truck . Absolutely loved it and the box description with the CB lingo was super cool . Thanks for this super build , brings back many happy childhood model building memories !
My favorite was over the top with Silvester Stallone thx for the opportunity 🙏
Hi hpiguys Workshop, my favorite TV show big rig is the KW W-925 ViT from Movin On. Thank you for this contest. Cheers, Rich S.
I love to drive them trucks back then I use to put a big truck together every weekend but I got out of it now I want to start putting them together again
My favorite show, dealing with trucking, is Ice Road Truckers. I’m a big fan of 1/32 truck kits. I like to modify/kit bash my rigs to represent heavy haul trucks and trailers.
My favorite truck is the 1974 Kenworth W-925 from Movin’ On. But I also love the semi from Duel and Knight Rider.
Always fun to watch. Any time I watch his semi videos I’m thrown back to my childhood and watching BJ and the Bear, Smokey and the Bandit and Convoy. Thanks😊
My Chevy Bison was Black; bought this one in 1979 at a bikeshop in Whiting, Ind. Great memoried!! 👍😉
I love all movie or tv semi trucks. Im a truck lover anyway. I done this kit when i was a teen in the 80's in black and orange.
My favorite rig from a movie is the old oil tanker from the movie “Duel”. The moment you said name your favorite, Duel was the first movie that came to mind. Great build, really enjoy the videos!
my favorite big rig from the movies is Smoky and the bandit 2. I drove a GMC General that was converted to a grain truck on the wheat harvest and always loved these trucks. Love the scream of a Detroit Diesel engine.
My favorite TV big rig is BJ and the Bear and Convoy
Absolutely love the bandit tractor trailer!!! I have seen it a few times in person and the movie doesn’t do it Justice!!! Love the movie and all the vehicles in it!
Always like watching you! I to am a fan of the rattle can for my painting. Built the GMC General back in the 80's, love this scale!
My favorite movie big rig is from moving on
I built this one back in 1995 as my first conventional big rig. I love this new box art and it'll certainly take up a lot less space than the 25th and 24th scale trucks I have now in my stash! The color scheme is reminiscent of the Shell oil company - now that's an idea, bringing it back with the oil tanker trailer! Now you mention TV shows and movies from the 70s and 80s that featured these types of trucks, I always loved "BJ and the Bear" and "Movin' On".
