International RF-190

[DRIPTROIT 71]

This began with a fiberglass cab from an unknown caster. It sits on the 4300 chassis from the latest issue. This one is curbside but it is powered by a IH Red Diamond 450 gas engine. Thanks to Charles Rowley for the IH R-190 emblem decals.

Looks great. I like that C&NW yellow.  I think I like that better than UP yellow, but that would have worked too. I like that single horn in the center. Looks right at home in those outdoor shots.

Awesome Brian! Looks very real with the outside pictures. 

[grodudulle77]

Nice look !! Nice pictures too !! ??

[AmericanMuscleFan]

Yet another stunning and compelling build to be mistaken for the real thing!  A great advertisement for an unknown caster!  Well done again Brian!!!

[Jim B]

That looks awesome.  Great details.

[PappyD340]

Extremely nice, well done!

[kilrathy10]

That is one serious looking rig... I'm loving it... Beautiful work... Great photography...

[extmcdriver]

Outstanding work, looks totally real, great job!

[Fat Brian]

You're builds have a crispness that is something I aspire to.

Now that is GREAT!!!!  Always enjoy seeing your builds, and the "variety" of subject matter you come up with.  ??

Looks great, sadly reminds me I'm old as I remember those on the road.....

[leafsprings]

Great build!   Excellent representation of what an old school IH should look like. Especially like the wheel and tire choice, air horn location and gas powerplant!

[skymnky721]

Really nice,,cool truck to drive I bet

[1959scudetto]

very nice International workhorse, great pics - a model that you see seldom on the internet!

[pegaso]

Excellent model and really nice pictures.

When I see such a non common model, I dream I can build one like this.

Thanks Vince! I’m going to try the Union Pacific yellow on my next build a T800 dump.

 Thanks so much for the kind words but my building pales in comparison to yours.

Thanks Warren! I really don’t remember these, but I remember seeing B-Model Macks on the road.

Thanks! Even though it was curbside I was back and forth between the Cummins and the gas engine, but finally settled on the gas.

Thanks Scott! I’m sure it would have been a work out to drive anyway.

 Thanks!! If I can build it I’m sure that you can too! Model builders from this very forum are what inspire me.

Good looking Cornbinder Brain. Especially what you had for a staring point

I love the look of this this truck, very muscular! You did a great job on it, one of the plain Jane workaday trucks that men spent their working lives in but never got any recognition. Just excellent!

[ChrisR]

Looks great!

[Hermann Kersten]

Awesome build Brian, Nice old work truck with a great color.

Simple but catching!

 

Hermann.

[slusher]

Outstanding build!!
