Looks Great! I like the color!! I'm sure that Detroit would sound Awesome, that is until you lost your hearing from a long pull.😀

What Sam said!

You don't see these built very often. Glad to see this one! Looks Great!

This one was built out of junk, Evergreen Styrene, and Plastruct. The resin cab was in terrible shape with several spots that had never cured. The engine is a 6v-53 Detroit made by cutting down an 8v-71 and fabricating new heads and valve covers closer to what a 53 series would have. The bed is completely scratch built, IMG_1355 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1359 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1362 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1373 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1380 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1390 by Brian Smith, on Flickr

Thanks! It's curbside, but I still wanted the engine in it. I hope to build a better detailed 6v-53 one day.

That is one massive looking rig Kerry, but with that steer car it may not take forty acres to turn it around!😀 Looks Great!

If you want to go that route, they are not very hard to make. I've made a couple on some of my builds. -
