I started with the Round2 reissue of the AMT Dual Drive, and set about converting it to a traditional "Michigan Special"- basically a short-wheelbase heavy-spec tractor. I used wheels and tires from an Italeri parts set (with wide floats up front), converted the engine to an NTC-350, and did it up in a blue/white paint scheme with yellow stripes separating the colors. The numbered flags are from a Peterbilt 352. I made my own mufflers and smokestacks because that seemed like it would have been less of a headache than cleaning up the kit-supplied parts. I also added the more common "stirrup" steps to the cab. The MPC Gravel Trailer is pretty much box stock- eventually I plan to make a dolly and hook up a second dump trailer for an old-style Michigan "Gravel train". In the meantime it takes up plenty of shelf space as-is. The "Thunder Sand & Gravel" markings came from the trailer kit.
