DRIPTROIT 71 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 This is a truck that I built close to 20 years ago. It is at my brother's house, so while I was there today, I snapped a couple of pictures. Keep in mind this was my first attempt at scratch building anything. The rack for the flag truck is a little too steep, but all in all I was pretty satisfied with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landman Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Neat At one time I was going to build a yard tender. It would be easy today with the crane cab available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Buckaroo Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Brian - Very nice Mobile Home toter. Did you make it to where the mirrors extend out also ? Great scratch building and the Pilot car/truck really adds to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Thanks for all the comments guys!!! Brian - Very nice Mobile Home toter. Did you make it to where the mirrors extend out also ? Great scratch building and the Pilot car/truck really adds to it. Thanks Sean! The mirror brackets are made from brass tube and they are telescoped together, but after almost 20 years I don't think that they will slide now.

Rigzndiesel Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 That's a nicely built truck. I like the color and the scratch-built toter body you put on it. Really cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
