That is an awesome scratchbuilt beauty. Really looking forward to the tractor now !! Rick

Nick, Other then Model Express I pretty much get most of my kits and scratchbuild materials from Randy. Great place and great slection. Haven't been over in a few months kinda put building anything on the back burner for a while given some health issues. Have to get over soon and see what kind of trouible I can get my wallett into though !! LOL. Rick

Hey Nick, glad that one was of interest. Heres one that has always caught my eye ,a 46 Chevy, thought the Revell 41 kit might me a good base to start off with and build something like this. Use Plaskits 2 ton wheels and tires and think it might be a good build opportunity. A lot of scratch work for sure but well worth it. http://www.stovebolt.com/gallery/images/hardy_spanky_1946b.jpg http://www.stovebolt.com/gallery/images/hardy_spanky_1946c.jpg Rick

Thanks Tim, That is an awsome rig, my father in law used to drive a Feightliner bulk milk tanker and it was something I was thinking about putting into the build list. When I was a kid growing up in small town Ontario we lived close to a powdered milk plant and used to see rigs similiar to this running in and out. Does that trialer have a reasonable potential for something like this. http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/art_laing/46_lj_in_54.jpg http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/art_laing/b70_at_cannonsville_ny_55.jpg http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/art_laing/b70_mack_55.jpg http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/pix/trucks/steve_slocum/2004/july07/scan.jpg Up here the tractors were more International oriented and I do remember some Ford c series doing the job as well.

Just wondering if anyone has worked with the Linberg chrome tanker kit. I am interested in how it works as a short trailer or as a tank on a straight truck. Any info or pics would be appreciated. Rick

Greymack, Nice job !! Have any pics of the fenders as a WIP when you widened them out. Lot of time put into this one for sure. Rick

I am just getting back into rig building and I have to say this one beautiful kit !! Can't wait to see it hit the shelves here in Canada. And yes Erb is a refigerated specialist up here in the Great White North !! Check out their site they have a gallery of driver pics http://www.erbgroup.com/ Rick
