Brockway 760
Warren D replied to Mopar - D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
I'll be following this as most of my Brockway builds have been on the A-car chassis. -

That looks great, the left rear looks a little low on air though.... -
Starting the next project, a GMC General Wrecker. I like the look of the former Jamie Davis General so here goes. AMT General kit and a Holmes wrecker off a First Gear Mack wrecker. I used the same wrecker body for the Brockway wrecker I did a couple of years ago. This one will have a weighted bumper out front and a few other little things. It will be basically patterned after Jamie's but as I'm not up to scratch building a Holmes 1601, it'll have a 750 lattice boom. First thing i'm finding is the AMT kit has some issues, biggest one so far is no locating pins on the front springs and the left side front shock needs a new mounting hole on the frame, it's off by about 1/8 inch. I'm sure there will be other issues as I progress.....

Calling it done: -
Calling this one done. AMT Autocar Dump kit with AITM Brockway 361 cab,hood, tanks, wheels and tires. Paint is Testors Aztek Pearl metallic blue, silver blue is custom blend of the blue pearl and silver pearl. Dump body is Pollyscale silver. I have yet to get the metallic pearls to photograph well. I added exhaust exits to the back of the dump box as I remembered growing up.

Came out great. I've e-mailed them several times in the past year or two, I've wanted to get one, no one ever replies. -
BRBO 2022 Brockway Dump Truck
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Progress shot. Chassis is painted along with the cab. Fenders have also been painted and ready to install when the cab is ready. Dump box almost ready for the frame, once on will need to pipe the exhaust to the dump body. So far so good, colors are silver blue pearl and dark blue pearl, both metallics. -

BRBO 2022 Brockway Dump Truck
Warren D replied to Warren D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Quick update, this is a mock up to check fit of the dump box and cab with the oversized rubber. Dump body has been painted, need to add some detail paint. I was going to try the chrome paint Mopar D used on his SuperBee fleet but after doing some test shots, I wasn't sure I could shoot a vertical surface without it running or sagging. I resurrected some old Pollyscale silver and got it to go through the airbrush, came out with the look I'm after. The dump body is a bit off the back of the frame so it looks like a short extension is in order. Cab is not the one for this build, it's from the on-hold Convoy build but it's all in one piece as opposed to this one which won't see the fenders mated to the nose until after paint. A/C unit on this one is too high, if I go with a/c I'll have to find a lower profile unit. -

Good start, I always de-chrome the engine parts. Not sure why they chrome certain parts, maybe a carry over from the car kits. -
