A pair

Adding grime to the cab using heavily diluted paint with a spray gun. My favorite look is "in use" and am trying to learn the art of "less is more". Booby trap !!! I have come to expect "issues". The interior tub had to be relieved severely to clear an interference fit with the air intake pipe (93). The shift plate (68) was also not cooperative. (too high, too long) Copper tubing was used to fill the gap between the exhaust (95,96) and mufflers.

The Ad Astra Modeling Club here in Topeka, Ks. had its annual show today......got a few truck pictures.... Fellow forum member and member of the Ad Astra Modeling Club, Paul, built this diorama along with fellow Ad Astra member Lamar Johnson. Along with the logging truck diorama, Paul also built this fine looking combo. A lot of scratch building went into this wrecker

Some very nicely done work

Excellent all the way around!! I will be watching this build with an eagle-eye. Putting the (PRO) in Pro-Build with no doubts.

I build all my trucks so that no axle turns and agree that is just an accident waiting to happen especially when the grandkid’s are nearby. I do the same but use solid plastic axles and I use Moebius wheelset most of the time. Before glueing the tire/wheel combo on, I will take the time to rotate them, mark them so they all line up well and make contact to the flat surface. Takes time, but to see a finished rig with an inside dual hanging in the air just looks strange.
