Dr. Kerry Posted March 8, 2019 This is a truck that I received in a trade deal and has a neat story behind it. I started building the truck and scratchbuilding a lot of things on it. I got to the headache rack and couldn’t quite get it to look right and posted an ad on another site looking for a rack from the kit. The next day the guy that traded me the kit pm’d me and asked if I’d mind if he could tinker with one and try it? I was like sure! A week later I find a box in the mail with the headache rack in it! Kind of kool that he had a hand in bringing it full circle and finished the build off with his work!! Autocar with back half of frame added, drop axle is a Peterbilt front axle, bunks and most of the trailer is scratched, trailer is fully articulated, extends, flexes etc. Added wet kit for possible grappler if they needed one, I do have logs cut so it has a load, thought I had pics of it loaded. Have to look for them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJ The pins are just the straight pins that you’d find in a dress shirt. Drill, insert and cut them flush on the other side! 5 hours ago, A64B said: Great looking Acar Doc.
