I am building a huge mid '20's flatbed truck in 1/25 scale.I plan on basing the frame and drive train on the Monogram '26 AC Mack bulldog kit.I have two donor kits for parts and plan on having tandem chain drives in the rear.

I want to create a scratch built wooden cab and am looking for possible sources of design ideas and information.Naturally I am turning to the world's' most knowledgeable source for answers......our readers.So all you antique truck lovers and builders...where should I be looking?

Thanks for your help!
