Old Buckaroo Posted December 11, 2015 Share 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.

gatorincebu Posted December 11, 2015 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superpeterbilt Posted December 12, 2015 Share 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!

Brinx Posted December 13, 2015 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
