This is my Autocar with a 650 Holmes, perhaps my favorite model I've built. Now one thing that was always slightly off for me was the Wrecker unit. The real truck had a 650 Holmes, a littler smaller than the 750. Now the first thing that sticks out is the winch itself which hides in the structure, a real one doesn't. And then the height, my unit was too tall, like really too tall. I redesigned my 650 and plan to print it tonight. That's about it for now, Thanks for looking!

Did some reorganizing, Right now it depicts modern day with trucks from 06, huh maybe should've checked that. but some new progress I have is that I have built a new yard truck. This GMC Astro once belonged to a workers brother, got junked and used as a yard truck. Eventually it got to the point where it was attached to the baler, and when the price of junk metal went through the roof in like 08 stuck to the baler. The two served faithfully until the Astro broke because apparently fixing yard trucks was just like, not a priority and cut up for scrap. Trailers a little big for the Astro Thats it for now, Thanks for looking

Based on part of my local junkyard, its like 4x8 and way outta scale. All the vehicles are 1/25, all the terrain is clearly not that! Adding to it when I'm not building other models, Next I probably need to build that building out of something not cardboard!
