DRIPTROIT 71

Nothing real special, mostly stock, just covered the deck with wood, moved mud flaps to the back and added some bracing to the headache rack.

I’m looking for a full tandem set of 3 spoke wheels in either 20” or 22”. They look like the ones on the rear axle on this truck.

Thanks Brian!! That's a huge compliment!

Thanks Jerry!! The Winslow stripes were a bit of a challenge to get them to lay down without tearing them up. I always get two sets when it comes to stripes, just in case. Thanks Carl!! Thanks Lucas!! Thanks Johnny!! The drive wheels are from the Paystar kit. I drilled out the centers and replaced them with resin hubs. I think that the hubs either came from KJ at Double Take or Jamie at moluminum. The wheels on the steer axle were an Ebay purchase. They appear to be copies of Ben Wicker's wheels or Jamie's wheels, but a much poorer quality.

Very nice looking rig! Nice work! I agree that the taller rubber looks better. I wish that we had more options in 24.5” tires and wheels.

Thanks Liam!! Thanks Chris!! Thanks Lee!! Thanks Ken!! Thanks Bill! The straps are made of HVAC tape cut into strips. It is the same tape that I covered my Carolina Reefer trailer with. Thanks Larry!! Thanks German!! Thanks David!! I've always liked the Winslow stripes. Thanks Steve!! I've had that engine for several years now, I'm glad that I finally put it in something. Thanks Tommy!! Thanks Sean!! Thanks Victor! I had never seen a single window like this before, but there was a 74 model on line for sale that had this single window with a factory rollup curtain to cover it in the sleeper. Thanks Dave!! Thanks Jurgen!! Thanks Steve!!

That is a real beauty! Great job!! I like the color scheme!!

That is a real beauty! Excellent work!

Thanks Jim! The engine is from Kit Form Services.

This one is from one of the Round 2 releases. The engine is the KFS 1693. The grille is from Detail Master. The stripes are from Modeltrucker decals. I’m building a flatbed to go behind it, it will get air lines then. And yes, I left this one clean.😀

Thanks! The wheels are front the Monogram Ford Dually kit (around an 88 model). The drive tires were from Scenes Unlimited, which is now owned by ST Supply, so they probably have them. The steer tires were from the parts box, out of a kit of some kind, not sure which one.

Thanks Jim!! Thanks Brian!! Thanks Steve!! Thanks Sean!! It has some Redneck engineering. Thanks Tommy!! Thanks Chris!! Thanks Lucas!! Thanks Ken!! Thanks Carl!! Thanks Mario!! Thanks David!! Thanks Jurgen!! Thanks Lee!! Thanks Jeff!! Thanks Scott!! Thanks Larry!! Thanks Victor!! Thanks Warren!! Especially climbing a hill at about 10 mph.. Thanks Mike!! Thanks again to all that commented, sorry for the late response.
