Here are some photos of my son's latest creation. This was a collaborative effort: Marilla removed some of the parts from the trees, Matthew removed parts fro the trees & built the truck, and I trimmed that parts as necessary with the hobby knife & did a little painting. Oh, and I repaired the shifter that got broken. The kit is the Monogram 1/32 Ford AeroMax120 (LTLA9000) that was released back in the 1990s, and the trailer is a 1/32 NewRay diecast that I got from a member on another group several years ago. Hope you enjoy the shots. Yes, it's "ice road truckin'"!     |

Thanks, guys.
What's he going to build next? Not sure, but he still want's to do an ambulance or another Mack CF600 pumper. We'll just have to see what happens.

Wow! Matt has sure progressed in a short time. Before long he will be right up there with the rest of the members, in larger scales. Really great build. That rig is just right on.

Thanks, Brian. I just ordered one from a LHS for myself. Looks like I'm branching off into 1/32.
