AMT 1971 Autocar A64B

[Jim B]

Just finished up the AMT Autocar A64B tractor kit:

The build is mostly box-stock except for the 3-D printed interior door handles & window cranks:

The exhaust was replaced with 5/16" aluminum tube, and the glad hand airlines are #22 black wire.  Decals are from the AMT/Ertl International Paystar5000 Cement Mixer.  Color is Testors Dark Red. AC lines are some small black wire from a broken USB cable.  Hydraulic tank is from the AMT/Ertl Dump Trailer.

Thanks for looking.

Jim, I really like what you have come up with here!! It has a real vintage look! I like the paint scheme and the short stack! Looks good!!

[Jim B]

Thanks, guys.  I appreciate the comments.

Brian, the stack is actually the same length as the one from the kit.  It was a one-for-one swap.  Now I just have to figure put how to make the curved stack to replace the solid one on the Autocar dump.

Very nice build!  Like the paint scheme and decal choice. These Autocars look more 1950's looking than 70's.

Thanks, Tom.

Actually, I very briefly considered using the AITM 1950 Autocar conversion on this one.
