Something form East Europe for you: Iveco TurboStar 190.42 in colours of Sovtransavto.
This one has been forgotten to back yard of some Russian truck dealer.It has been over two years since my last model, tried to do a comeback with this.
The model was not a pleasure to build, was it something to do with the age (over 25 years) of the model, I don't know...More pictures you can find HERE if you are interested.

Where on earth did you get Coke cans? (I have a use for A LOT of those! The girlie magazine is interesting too! (I think I know how I can get those however.... The Coke soda cans tho.......... NICE detail!
Coke cans are simply styrene rod with self printed labels.
Flatbed attached, two fuel barrels added and some mud splattered.

Blue paint for GMC. I removed all chrome and replaced mirrors with ones from Italeri Truck Accessories set.
They are a bit bigger but not so chunky as the original mirrors, I think they fit quite well.
The extra lights are from the same set but I replaced the lenses with etched ones as I did with the headlights. -
Some small items to the cab etc.
-
The dumper got worn orange suit.

Yes we do have tags on trailers in the U.S. A trailer like you are building. Would most likely have the tag mounted in the center at the rear of the trailer , between the rampsYour trailer looks pretty good thus far. Though I would add larger gussets on the gooseneck. lots of stress there !
Thanks for the info. A good point, I will strenghten the gooseneck a bit.
Situation is now this. -
That GMC wrecker is a simple kit, That you can build up into some cool trucks. I like your flatbed with the under slung tool box. Are you going to put anything on the bed itself?
Plan is to place two fuel barrels on the bed.
Trailer is on its way. Do you have license plates on trailers in U.S.A...??

Flat bed for GMC. This Revell set was quite simple...

I built about an year ago a small dumper out of spare parts and styrene. Now it is time to build a carrier for this.
Carrier will be a GMC '77.

Peterbilt 377 PZA-MPV (Post Zombie Apocalypse Multi Purpose Vehicle)
Multi purpose vehicle for small community. Truck is able to transport liquids, cold goods, loose goods and
heavier stuff at the same time. The crane is very helpfull also in other tasks than loading.
Seems that one zombie has crashed to the nose.

Thank You again!
Awesome! Don't know what to say. How is the crane of the truck made? Is it scratch build?
The booms of the crane are modified from EMEK timber crane, other parts are scratch built.

Thank You all!
impressive work, this took a lot time, right?
I didn't count the hours... I started the project in August (2014) but progress was stopped sometimes for days and even few weeks.
