If you are old enought to remember this show, you now make noises when you sit down. As a ten year old, this was the coolest truck on TV, the trailer would split open from the top and there was a helicopter hidden inside.

The base of this creation is a pushback tug used in the airport. They adapted it for trailers.
I recognized the tug part right off. That's a lot of custom bodywork. These days they just CG stuff like that. Back then they actually had to make props. Sometimes they did a pretty poor job, but that one is high end. I'm actually old enough to have seen that show, but I don't remember ever watching it.
Ha! I thought that's what it was.
