I finally got somthing done lol!!! Some of you may have seen the truck in progress on another forum. I finished it this afternoon and wanted to post it here first. The hood is resin from P&P the frame is scratch built and the rear suspension has been reworked to look like Pete low air leif. The trailer is a reworked Revell 6 axle that I got as a junk yard and reworked into a spread axle with scratch built tarp and strap boxes. Attachments:

rear view of the truck and trailer The load is a piece of styrphoam that was about the right size for a load so I tried to paint it black to look like a tarped load of plywood but it didn't like my paint very well Mark Attachments:

Nice looking rig there Mark. When you come over, I will show you how I make tarp loads, Its an easy process. You must have used enamel on the styrofoam. It will attack the styrofoam something fearce.

good looking rig. Styrofoam only likes water based paints. Latex works the best.

Nice, always prefer to see flats, steps, & lowbed trailers. Especially with a load.
thanks for sharing
