My kenworth w900 and reefer trailer
OldTrucker replied to Diggerdan's topic in Model Truck Show Room
Wow! What a show rig! See a few every now and then rolling down the interstate near my home! -
Nice looking workhorse of a truck!
-
Great looking build!

Nice job on a kind of difficult kit cab wise. Love those old cabovers!
-
Takes me back to the days of the independent Truck Driver when you could get your truck painted by the dealer almost any color you wanted! Love the color!
-
Now that is one sweet piece of trucking history! Great job!
-
That is a beauty!

Just TOO COOL for words!

Never seen this truck before. Cool build! -
Now that is one sweet truck. Brings back memories of the old trucks on the farms I worked as a kid in the 1960's!

I like it! Those old Bull Dogs are awesome trucks! I like the general theme of the build and the weathering looks the part! Like your idea for the load too!
-
Anyone know if the chassis is the same in the Road Boss and Pete Wrecker kits? Looking to put the wrecker bed on the Road Boss.
-
Thanks PT! That is what I was looking for!
-
The 2 hole Budd wheels and road grime makes the truck! Looks like she has been out for a while! Great build!
-
Nice build! Always liked the look of the Ford semi tractors especially this model! Like the use of the budd wheels. Gives it that no frills workhorse feel!
-
Built out of box except for shortening the frame.
-
Mobile home hauler was the first thing I thought of with the severely bobbed off frame! I did a day cab of this model back in the late 70's. Unfortunately my wife's brothers got into out stuff stored in their garage and trashed a lot of built kits. Hope they can see their way to repop this kit someday soon!

There was a local furniture factory here that used those trucks as company trucks hauling lowboy furniture trailers. A local trucking firm had the long hood version of those powered by 671 Detroits. We had several cabs with frames and engines on the sod farm that the owner had bought for the Detroits for use on his irrigation pumps. Rebuilt 3 of them while I was a driver / mechanic there.

First saw this build over at MCM but could not comment on it because while they allowed me to join I still cannot post. (OldTrucker there too) I have only seen one of these in my life time and it was in a truck bone yard when I was a kid and there wasn't much left of it then. This is a great example of how todays trucks had started to evolve! Beautiful job!
-
Looking good so far! Looking forward to seeing more! How in the world do you guys get gold paint to lay down that nice?
-
WOW!!! Looks ready to fire up and run! Just the right amount of road grime and wear to look like the real thing! Wish that is what powered the trucks I drove!
