Pete68 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) I cleaned up my old Acar today that Bill gave to me as a model Kit for my Birthday the same year I built my Freightliner a couple years ago he gave me some of his build truck models when he was a kid. Bill built this Acar around 1974 The headache rack and winch where scratch build. The headache rack was made from tree styrene parts some parts both models are missing parts and cannot be found. These trucks are so much like my 1.1 truck that when I was restoring my real truck with my dad it reminded me of the model. Enjoy the pics I have also included pictures of my 1.1 Autocar Edited July 23, 2016 by Pete68 Pictures wouldn't load Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpreadAxle Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I like both builds and the real thing is really sharp. It's always nice to still have builds from decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
