I built this about 12 years ago for a old friend / collector & he brought it to the IMCATS show so i could get new photos of it. The cab is from the MT&FA era of thick & rough. it is on a parts box Transtar frame, Old RNK WT's, and the ever present Drip-troit road oiler for power. Ap40 Attachments:

Rick,
As always a very good looking model.
Back in the late 60's to early 70;s Brockways were the truck of choice in most of South Florida.
fitted out with dump bodies or to pull rock buckets.
Be Well

Rick, it looks great. I have recently done the Penn Yan decals (Dave has a set for a future project) and I have a 759 set aside for this project as well.
