Such a great build and spot on weathering
-
That finish is so realistic, very well done.

Thank you

I haven’t posted anything here in awhile, be nice to see some activity again. So here is my latest completion. This started out as the AMT Autocar A64 B tractor kit. Stretched frame, added lift axle, fenders, later model turbo Cummins with larger turbo and plumbed inter cooler, custom mirrors, custom visor, custom dash, some plumbing, hand made exhaust, 10 wheels and on and on.

Kenworth C500 6 by 6 wrecker....1/25 scale...
Gary Chase replied to Tom Hall's topic in Model Truck Workbench
Just seen your GMC wrecker build, she’s a beautiful build, curious to see where this build goes. -
Any progress on this stunning build?
-
That is a great color scheme, really makes that truck pop, well done.

You got some serious skills, love this build.

Watched you build this beautiful rig, well done sir.

Was looking for an easy build with not very much fabrication and decided on a GMC General ( I have four of those kits) and kit bashing a box from the Ford delivery truck kit. Then I found these decals of a beer company and thought “everybody needs a beer truck on the shelf. I started on this a couple weeks ago , so doing a bit of catch-up. a bit of mock-up to get frame length and wheelbase correct. Added one inch ahead of the drive axles and 1.5 inches on the end of the frame, will trim later when I get the lift gate mounted. got some paint work done today the chassis is coming together.

Can’t wait to see this finished, like where this is going. -
Another mock-up to get exhaust length and look at colors.

I can’t even see that wire let alone do something with it.

AMT Diamond Reo with logging trailer
Gary Chase replied to 02fusoFG's topic in Model Truck Workbench
Your build is looking really good, nice work -
Wasn’t sure where this build was going but after some thought and accumulated parts. Well a newer style log truck is the build…….so far. The red Kenworth is the neighbors truck and is the inspiration. They run the single wide tires all the way around, air lift axles everywhere. I got a bunch of reference pictures and measurements. The beds are 26 ft long. got the beds roughed out. getting to work on the trailer.

My room just keeps filling up, been wanting to build a glass display case to store my builds, maybe keep them clean longer.

AMT Kenworth W-925 with livestock van
Gary Chase replied to 02fusoFG's topic in Model Truck Workbench
Wow, that build looks so good, well done -
Been collecting parts most the summer, so yesterday I laid out all the parts today I measured out the frame length and got the frame rails together, will need to trim off about a quarter of an inch……..maybe😉 I did take the time to add a couple Craftsman toolboxes this summer under my bench to organize a bit better

Hang in there, went thru that about 20 years ago and she threw out all my builds and unbuilt kits in the trash among other stuff
