Chariots of Fire Posted January 13, 2023 This 1/25 scale Diamond T Wrecker was built using information from a Squadron Walk Around Photo book and TM-811 which is the US Army technical manual for the 4 Ton Trucks. It carried the designation of 969A with the army. It was built from a combination of brass, plastic, Renshape, resin castings, brass wire, aluminum foil, two ply facial tissue for the top and assundry pins and wire. Metallic embroidery thread was used for the winch cables. Decals are computer generated and ALPS printed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny M Posted January 13, 2023 Wow -- just wonderful.. My eye is drawn to all the tiny details -- the tools, the cables, the fittings, all that. Love the little red and green caps on the bottles. It's fun how the smallest and most ordinary colors stand out against the olive drab panels. Johnny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
