Mack Superliner Wrecker


Recommended Posts

Calling this one done for now.
Just going to order some other wheels and tires + stoneguard and bugshields some extra lights for the bullbar and see if i can find a better looking chain to have hanging on the bullbar.
The pintjob is inspired from the Australian bicentennial Mack Superliners.

Great looking wrecker! Nice combo of those two kits.

can you put up a few more pics of the tow boom? It’s such an odd looking thing, I have a couple of those kits in my stash, would like to see more of the actual boom/bed layout, thanks .

Sure, here you go.
The winchdrums could easily be modified so that they spin and work as on a real truck if you want to.
They are seperate pieces.

Here is the hingepoint for the boom arm when it is folded in for transport
Could be movable if you dont use the moulded wire in the kit that i used.
