Cool build, you gotta love them Russian Trucks. Are you going to add the winch to the truck, and what type of trailer are going to use? There was a German company called Preiser, from Rottenburg ob der Tauber, produced some of the best model kit out there. All the Vehicles were of German companies, but what details they had. Check out the company.

No problem Jeff, Klaus's models remind of Mark Savage, who in the 70's and 80's was the king of Oil Field Trucks. Klaus has built, Kenworth, Peterbilt, Foremost, Pacific, Mack, and others. Have you thought about extending your house, for the model?

I know the Gentleman this Dio. His name is Claus Klever, from Germany. A lot of his models are Oil Field theme. Most of his kits are Scratch Built. at one time he was selling to cabs. Claus's work, is just unbelievable, the details and all the extras he puts in his models. Good luck on the build and I will be following it.

Awesome truck, as long as it makes him happy, and brings back good memories, you did it Right! Remember, a Smile is worth a thousand words.

Wow Vince, your frame looks great. I remember a few years a go, an article about building model truck frames from scratch. Keep up the good work.

Looking Good, these were easy kits to build, you're doing a great job.

Looking Good! Have you decided, what type of trailer you going to hook up with?

Sam, I will be watching you rebuild! The Paystar 5000 is one of my favorites!

Wow, what great and interesting pictures! Would have loved to have the Grain Trailer. Who knows, what other interesting kit would have been released?

Looking good! I like the tires from Jamie, are the rims from him too?

It's nice to see the 1/43 scales models built again! I will be following the build.

Almost makes me go out and find the kits.

I was just going to ask the same question! Is the trailer from Alloy Forms/Jaks?

Their are some Awesome 1/87 model builders out there! You need to check out 1/87 vehicles.org . Some great Trucks are there.

I have to Agree! What a master piece!
