mackd Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I decided a repair my models forest that have been damaged in an accident.This model is a flat road train modified to transport logs.I ntil ' at the end of the 1980s forest carriers used these trailers then forest specially designed for wood arrived. Before repair I pickled slightly because Easy Off and mastic are not compatible and my Hood is scracht built there a lot of PuTTY. The other mack is a forestry truck also. The damaged trailer. removed 5 feet to have two 25 feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
