The Ukrainian firm, Hobby Terra, carries a exquisitely detailed Ford V-8 stake bed truck (link above) that's the cat's meow. Shipping by air to the US is only $6.00, takes about 10 days.
 
I've purchaced 2 kits. Parts are included for both model years. As a bonus like other companies, extra parts for a T.B.D. regular pick-em-up truck are on the sprues, including a shorter frame, springs, differential, rear fenders etc.
 
The only issue is the glass, there isn't any, but the patterns are included, front, rear and side.
I use clear plastic cookie containers for my blanks.

PSST bought for the diorama of my Dad's "General Air Freight" Ford Trimotor.

UM models makes Russian Ford GAZ A/AA trucks, and IBG Models makes a 39 and a 41 German Ford truck which can be easily Americanified.
