This was one of my first scratch built dump trucks. Cline trucks were made in Olathe Kansas, and have a special spot in my passion for trucks. The frame is a H beam done out of acrylic, resin cast DDC 12V-71, Allison CL(B)T-5960 trans, Clark BD-121 rear drive axles. The tires are 16:00 x 25. the dump box is mostly ABS, other materials used include; brass rod, sheet aluminum, copper, card board. Ap40 Attachments:

thanks again, the Cline was very popular in the coal mines of WV, KY & thru out the Appalachian mountains. Over the years many have found there way out of the coal fields & into the heavy haul world as ballasted prime movers. Companies such as Joe D. Hughes in TX (now a part of Mammoet) had at least 4. JPW Riggers had 2, one was never used the other was rebuilt & sold to Deep South Crane & rigging. Beyel Bros in FL has a 65 ton PM, Selinsky HH still operated the 1 as needed. Many more have gone on around the world. Another view of the model Ap40 Attachments:
