Very sharp rig, just enough weathering to make the detail pop

Another awesome build you have going KJ !! Cool how small tweaks can give the trucks a completely new look and capturing that Ole school look along the way ! Very nice
Hope your vacation was a great time too!

Many of the trailer manufacturer websites have drawings online for thier products. I know of a few builders that utilized this for their builds, makes it much easier than trying to designing everything yourself. The cool part is you can scale the drawing by using say a known size like a tire..then print it for your own drawings.

I second that! Dump w plow would look great together.
If ya decide to build that , drop me a pm I have the Montone dump box and hardware from the autocar kit I'm not using. That would work well on the back.

Certainly a beautiful truck that presents itself well! Just my opinion, but all of the attendees were winners..they all drove Brockway trucks!
Did anyone notice the "other"truck that arrived and was parked around the corner? Guess the bulldog felt left out

a few pics from today's Brockway truck show in Cortland NY. There was an excellent turnout considering the high , muggy temps and forecast rain. The forecast didn't dampen the celebration !!!
This single drive really looked amazing..
The high temps made everyone comment about the other common NY weather around this snow plow!
My personal favorite..finally seeing the infamous TWIN golden HUSKIES !!! That could only mean one thing ....HUSKI DRIVE !!

gotnitro? added a post in a topic My next scratchbuild.. Mack DMM W Theam conveyor
Thanks on the comments about my daughter, she's been keeping us on our toes! I forgot what 2 hrs sleep felt like...finally sleeping a full night!
Glad everyone likes the progress, I started the conveyor folding sections and making a few templates for possible castings. Found a couple pics didn't show the detail I'd hoped, so it's back to the plant !
Stay tuned !
