The Brush Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) Hi, I saw a picture of a crew cab superliner & decided to build one, A gentleman at a model show gave me a box of bits some yearrs back, in this box was parts of the can do wrecker & a Italeri frame with cummins motor, This is the start of the project, 2 resin cabs were used cut & joined with plastic card, The roof filled with balsawood , I will make a frame extension from card & perspex & hopefully all other bits from the spares stash. this is more like recycling than a new build. Hers a few pics to start with. Edited December 31, 2021 by The Brush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockford Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 This is going to be another masterpiece like your green Mack (that sounds like a coat 🤔). I'm intrigued with the different materials you use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Brush Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) Hi, Thanks for the comments . I extended the frame & repaired the front axle with ali tube & cut down nails, Because the frame is long & empty looking i added some basic plumbing, The lift axle is scratch built along the lines of the original, the grill was also repaired, new hinges made & mack letters added, The cab still needs more work although it`s in primer. Thanks for looking. Graham. Edited January 22 by The Brush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
