This one is still in process, hope to finish it in a few days. AITM resin kit # KT-4; www.aitruckmodels.com/pages/kt4mackltcompkit.htmlI cut off the kits rear suspension & added a scratch built 30K Mack rear then added 12 x24 knobby drive tires. the exhaust pipe is bent from solid 3/16 aluminum bar, then bored out the tip end & polished to a shiny finish. William, This is the one sitting behind the C-600 wrecker. Ap40 Attachments:

Wow that is really nice and what a brute. I'm glad you posted this as I tried to blow up that other picture to get a look at it but could only see a little detail. This is really great. Like the colour match up.
I need to get a set of those five whole rims and tire for another off Hwy unit I am currently setting up for build.
Another great build there Rick.

Looking good there Rick. I have one of these resin LT units which I built into a yarding unit off the original down here at Schaffers Logging. You all call them Gin Poles but out here they are refered to as yarding Cleanup rigs or Pole Skidders.
