I built this for a collector in Rochester NY in 2002. A combination of the basic 4300 kit, added 1" to the frame, swapped out the engine for the twin turbo 475 Cummins from one of the many RoG Peterbilt kits. A set of front floats from the RoG Peterbilt "Stepp's" wrecker. The body is scratch built from ABS. Paint is silver for the box & 1970 Ford Grabber blue on the cab & chassis. A pair of CFC rubber fender flares round out the front end. Only have a few low res images + one taken out doors on a nice snowy day. Ap40

Thanks guys! I think someday I will build another one for my collection. I have found that over the years, many of the models i have done for others, are on my list to build again for myself.

Do you have that much film Rick? Mike Well at least with digital tech i don't need to worry about film any more... But ONE of you just need to clarify what part of my collection you might like to see more of? Ap40
