Excellent work. You have done a fine job on this conversion. Is this going to turn into a whole truck, or just the hood for now?
-
Looking good so far.

Im not trying to be critical by any means, but to achieve what your looking to do, it would be much easier and more accurate to just put a spread axle air ride under an R model Mack kit. Using the Pete chassis will be a lot of work. The Mack frame rails would also be spread out at the front to fit the V8. No matter how, this will be a cool project.

Very nice work. It turned out to be a very clean build. These FL kits can look so different with just a lil bit of imagineering. Fine job

That fleetstar looks cool. Id leave the wheelbase as is. Maybe throw a mercury on it to shorten it up?
-
Very clean, good looking rig. I really like it.

Exactly right

Very nice combo, and great build of a rare truck kit.

Blueprints are available on the Rogers website. Just click on a model, then a trailer, then scroll down to English dimensions. http://www.rogerstrailers.com/

Very cool. This is a great representation of the end of the GATR, when they majorly modified the trucks.I would have hated to be on the pit crew of a truck with spoke wheels though!

I may, but theres still so much resin to buy. Some cabs I have to draw the line at one.I would love to build 10 of them honestly.
-
That would be my guess.This was the last real Autocar before they changed to the new White cabs and hoods that ended up becoming volvo. From what I understand, now they only build garbage truck chassis.
-
That really looks great. Its impossible to tell that this was the AMT kit. Excellent job.
-
I have one of those set aside to build this dude or this one
-
Very nice work. I havent seen this hood used on anything yet. The only 1:1s Ive seen like this were loggers. Ive seen one with a mercury sleeper that looked awesome. Keep up the good work.
-
Nice builds. The GATR truck is interesting. I saw some of these being built on another forum. The forward axle raider is shaping up nicely.

Outstanding build. There are so many details that make this an exceptional model. The bungy cords, mesh catwalk, lowboy ramps, subtle engine weathering, and headache rack are just a few of my favorite stand out details. Great job.
