This was built 15 years ago, sorry for the poor photo quality, it is a scan of the only photo i have. Chassis is the "POP's" deliver truck, with a scratch built re-fridge body & reefer unit. old RNK resin wheels & tires, custom graphics. The model was a commission build for a driver on his 16th straight year of being the #1 safe driver. Ap40 Attachments:

Nice Byrne Dairy truck. I think they're using T800s now.

Nice Byrne Dairy truck. I think they're using T800s now. Correct. they tried the Sterling's but they are all POS. parts would fall off the cab while driving down the road. Out in Rochester, they had a fleet of Fords, then when they took over Chateau Ice cream they inherited that fleet of Mack's. My buddy tells me that the KW T-800's are the best all around, except for the newest ones with the "PACCAR-DAF' motors. Ap40 |

I've contemplated doing one of their T800 city tractors. Maybe in the future.

I've contemplated doing one of their T800 city tractors. Maybe in the future. I will check, as i am pretty sure all of the tractors are the short hood T-8's. they also have lots of T-300 straight trucks. Ap40 |
