This Autocar dump Belongs to Gator Trucking a division of McCloskey Enterprises.Owned by one Gator McCloskey. This truck has been modified to include a removable scow end on the dump body. The airhorns have been moved to the left front fender. The mirrors have been changed to ones from the Italeri parts pack, The dump bed has been reinforced with heavy angle iron to strengthen the bed when hauling rip rap and demolition debris. And the rear has been given a wide mud flap and the tail lights have a steel grating over them.Tails lights are Craft store gems. This model will need to be rebuilt .Due to damage suffered in moving. Comments and criticisms welcome. Be Well Gator

This is an old build of DAF dump truck that has been worked hard and is now relegated to site work or pit duty. Front tires and wheels from RNK. This IH was built box stock many years ago. Will most likely need a rebuild as will the DAF. o Comments and or critisisms welcome. Be Well Gator

Robert, I am really enjoying following this build thread. Your attention to detail is astounding. Cheers. Be Well Gator

David, For me handling and assembling the really small parts would be a real challenge. As for the CNC machine. I don't think so. I am not a computer tech kinda guy ( read I am a Dinosaur ! lol) Be Well Gator

Jacobus, You did a real fine job on the Brockway build. And it looks really good with that dump trailer. I will watching for your dump trailer build. and also thw outdoor photos. As for the chassis change, I did like the idea of using the metal chassis from the Volvo kit. But the AITM chassis is also a very good choice! Be Well Gator

Looks like a bed for the Dodge in the making! Will be watching how you do this. Be Well Gator

Jarda, take you time and don't fight it. I know you will be able to work through this problem with the masking. This model is really good thus far. Be Well Gator
