1959scudetto Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Absolutely fantastic rig, Brian - I love those old PIE trucks. I have planned one similar truck (resin cab from spaulding in my stash for some time in the future) - if it would become half as nice as your one, I would be very pleased!
