DRIPTROIT 71 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Wow!! This thing is awesome!!! Looks like the real thing. Great Work!!!
Petetrucker07 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 WOW is right! This came out excellent Dennis. You really did a great job on this. This Mack reissue was the perfect choice. Well done man.
Old Buckaroo Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 That is a beauty ! ( never thought I would say that about a trash hauler ) Very nice work all the way around. My favorite feature the working net or whatever it is called. I would not be able to resist shredding up some different color paper mounted to a piece of foamboard for a load - if that was on my shelf.
towman1271 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 That's just amazing.. you nailed it to perfection.. Did u make the grill yourself.. appears to be louvered.
gatorincebu Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Dennis, Once again your penchant for detail is evident. Your scratch building skills ........obvious ! You ave recreated a truck that many people see on a daily basis.I would bet you could sell that model to That company for some serious money. Enough to fund several more projects ! Well done my friend. Be Well Gator

Tesla Posted December 12, 2015 Author Posted December 12, 2015 Thanks to all for your compliments...I really appreciate them
Tesla Posted December 12, 2015 Author Posted December 12, 2015 That's just amazing.. you nailed it to perfection.. Did u make the grill yourself.. appears to be louvered.Thanks Dave. That's how it's supplied with the kit.
Superpeterbilt Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Wow Dennis, what an exceptional build! I have been waiting to see this finished, but I wasnt ready. This has got to be the coolest roll-off model that Ive seen. The detailing is outstanding, and the scratchbuilding on the roll-off is as well. Great job!
mikemodeler Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 very nice and super clean. Great details and an overall awesome job on something not available in kit form.
Brinx Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Dennis, that is one well done hauler. We had one drop off a 20yd at the shop last month and the working features of your rig mirrored the actual drop off and subsequent call-back for container re-placement (oops!) of the actual WM rig. I too, really like the tarp deployment unit, spot-on.
Old Albion Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 This really is nice, with excellent workmanship and imagination. Superb build!
OlSchoolRedo Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Now that's what i'm talking about!!! Great job on the execution of the build, and glad to see something a little different.
mackd Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Magnificent achievement. A work of great quality and very realistic. It is very successful.
