Mopar - D Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 I went with a curved out at the top. Don't want any of the brand new Mopars getting exhaust on them. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 That's true. That old Dodge is definitely not a clean air truck with DEF. It's an old coal roller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Thanks Dennis, Heres the truck on the way to get its rack installed on the back. And on the wat back from having it installed. The sun came out so I grabed my truck and got some out side pictures. Glad i did as the sun only lasted about 2 hours.

M-135 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 A great build, all those Mopars, a winning combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Thanks Tom, Richard, Ray, Terry for your comments. Mike welcome to the site and thanks. I've started my next build its a 39 Dodge custom hauler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Man, I don't know how I missed the last update. It looks fantastic with the load of cars. I think that wagon on the front might put you over weight on your steers though. Just messing with ya, looks great man, well done.

uncle potts Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I just found this thread tonight, can't believe I missed this one. This is one of those ideas we have that we think would be really cool to build, but don't have the courage to try. You, however have done a fantastic job of pulling this project off. My hats of to you, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopar - D Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks Clayton. Believe it or not I've had different cars sitting up on the front section before going down and they did not lift the back of it up. Most of weight is transferred back to the center section of the truck. Thanks Paul your right it was a project that I wanted for some time but just held off. When I saw the Fumiji car hauler that was made me pull the trigger on the build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Buckaroo Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 This has become one of my most favorite truck builds of all time. That station wagon is the topping. Man what a car - can you tell me more about it ? (kit, resin, promo) I am sure my model collection is incomplete now as I dont have a station wagon.

Mopar - D Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks Sean the Fury station wagon is a resin from Motor City Resin and I did a WIP over on the car section back in Nov. 14 Finally the sun came out and my son was home. Out side pictures and with that I'm going to post this over in Under Glass with a lot more pictures. Again thanks every one the followed and supported me on this build.
