Hello everyone It has been a wile since I have posted anything here mostly because I don't have much build time. Due to a really bad truck accident and a fairly long recovery I have had time to actually start and finish a truck I hope you like it. It is a replica of a Roseburg lumber company Western Star log truck. Attachments:

One more I thought this one was cool because the sun was hitting it just right and it looks like the lights are on Attachments:

A little "model" therapy should help. I remember these trucks very well running up and down the freeway. You nailed it. Mike
