The box for the C-600,Yet another on my list of gotta wants! Looks more like a f series to me?

gotta have that kit,e-bay here i come!! awsome build too

This is as far as i gonna take this one Big thanks to Everyone for the support!Just realized i put this in the wrong place!Mods Help!!!

AMT 1132,gotta have at least one.Love the short trailers too!

Henry,Jeff and everyone thank you. And thanks for the encouragement to forge ahead when you cant buy what you want and a big shoutout to brandon for providing the drawings to do this Heres a couple shots with the rig When this is all buttoned up ill post the finished shots in under glass

Outstanding details! Awsome

Im closing in on this one Have some paint on and sub assemblys ready Gonna let this dry then clear coat then put it together

Hers a workaround i used for some shims I needed about .200 thick shim to make the correct ride hight for the White SD and discovered that a Lego block measured .200 so and happened to be the right widthe also! They are the blue parts in the pic

More progress on the sides

Heres the start of the trailer sides Have some Evergreen car siding to do the doors with

Decided to ditch the black plastic i started with and went with styreen Next will be the sides and then how to do the the doors.Not going to have them working so it shouldent be to much of a issue.

TY Rick This truck must be living a charmed life.It fell of the 40" high table to the carpeted basement floor and only suffered one broken part and two parts came off. Thats what lead to the brass pin that is now the cab hinge Still have to paint the chrome parts and decide on the wheel color

Heres the roof and a veiw of wat hopefully is to come And the Freightliner rig in progress to pull it

Have a look at this,not exactly what you seek but could work into one https://aitruckmodels.com/product/ford-f-600700/

I got a start on the trailer today,and a big thank you to Explorer2770for the plan to get this going. Here is the frame i made from leftover Dodge L-700 tanker trailer parts Having problems uploading photos!! Ill b Back Ok,just a little photo how to on this end!

WoW Brandon! Thats more than perfect. Now to source some styreen sheet for this Thank you again

Jeff,That is cool!my plan was to print the photo,use the back tire as a reference to scale and go from there .The two things im interested in are the length of this trailer and the door width sizes.

Im going in on this. I have enough extras from other builds to atempt a scratch build beverage trailer Im at the end of the White Freightliner COE i diid as a day cab to mate to this Heres a pic of what im shootin for I think its still to modern era but after several searches its the closet to what i had in mind. So off i go to try to scale this pic To the Bench

Scratchin one would be a interesting and fun project but in my modeling head a beverage trailer,my choice would be a vintage style versus what i posted,would be a mony maker for a R2 or Revell or anyone else who can back such a project,first would be the license for whatever subject they chose to model,then if they wanted a brand name one the side theres another hurdle to overcome but in the end what truck modeler wouldn't want a kit like that.Just my over two years experience rookie modeler nickels worth

Heres a few pics of where im at now.

I agree 100 + Alan.This has turned into sort of a nightmare so now im to the point i just want to endup with a usable model.Not only bad choice of frame i also did the interior tub wrong that ended up costing a lot of work.In hindsite, i would like to do this again with a better choice of frame and not destroy the interior tub next time.Maybe if R2 would reissue this wagon it would be easier to get doner bodies

Also falling victim to my subterranean model dungeon is the AMT white Freightliner two in one kit. Im doing this as a single drive,not a lot done but here is the Cummins NHC-250 so far Well,having trouble uploading pics right now,give that a shot later I have read about the issue with the front of the body but im gonna build this OOB. Now back to another build im in the middle of!!

What i was thinkin too Richard.I think R2 keeps a quiet eye on places like this so maybe if enough of us make some noise about this they will give it a go.Or,how about resin casters do one that would use one of the mayflower style trailers as a donner

Im in for one,gonna try a short bed Power Wagon,Hemi Orange,318 auto.I ve got the LRW but now need to find a dana 44 front end .
