Jetdriver69 Posted December 3, 2019 Just finished a scratch built 1925 Model T honey barrel hauler for a friend of mine who has a honey business. Not really an accurate scale depiction but probably around 1/15 to 1/18 scale. It is quite large at 13 inches long. Anyway I modeled the lines after the rat rod below using sheet styrene for the cab, a left over Peterbilt 378 frame, wheels, radiator, engine and part of the frame from a 1/18 scale Muscle machine die cast car and the barrel from the Barrel of Monkeys kids game. I added thin basswood to the barrel to make it look more authentic and poly'ed it 4 coats. The decals are printed on Testor's clear decal paper. The paint/clear was wet sanded down to 12000 grit and polished out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jetdriver69 Posted December 10, 2019 Thanks! Pretty much everything was leftovers from my two previous truck hot rods. Extra engine, radiator, tires, paint, sheet plastic. Just had to buy the display case and invest the hours. The barrel took some time but a fun build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
