Fred,
That is one of your best in my opinion. Looking forward to seeing it in person soon as theydecide to have the Harrisburg Show again. Outstanding detail in every inch. You have got to be the master of the forge and torch!!

Fred, That is really a great looking model. I am just trying to guess at the hours and hours of metal work that you did on that. Fantastic job!!

North Dakota Toy show was a lot of fun, met a lot of interesting people with stories of the Big Four. 1475 miles over there was the only draw back. May go again in the future if the builds are appropriate to the show. Presently, casting tires for the experience and a future build. Fred Attachments:

No secret build in the future, so many times I need a tire that I can't buy so I want to have the confidence to build my own. I plan to use these tires on a off road rock truck but not in the near future. Fred
