GMC 7500 Fertilizer Spreader Truck
Pete68 replied to DRIPTROIT 71's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Brian I was wondering if you can contact Dave and get a Long Nose and just shorten it? He has one in stock and if there’s none he will cast you one. -

Thanks Ken I must agreed that’s the one I enjoy the most hope you come along for the ride -
Sorry guys I’m going have to take a break on the 1/87 for a good while its really messing with my hands and eyes. Anyway back to the bench. I got this from Dave (AITM) last year and I’ve decided to start it.I painted the Cab Allis Chamlers Orange. I plan on this pulling a dump trailer. The Engine will not be seen but I painted it close to Mack gray as I could. Have to get a few more parts to add and I got some built also tonight. I’m going to make some new tank brackets. I’m using the DM frame to get the vintage parts to build this and using parts from other kits. Enjoy the pics

Pete68 replied to Pete68's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Vince I put it in the description what the chassis and running gear was it’s a 1/87 Russian truck kit that I bought from Romania back in 2008. Everything in the pic besides the cab and the winch came with that truck. I don’t even know if they still sell the truck . Thanks for the complement
