Pete68 Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) I cleaned up my old Acar today that Bill gave to me as a model Kit for my Birthday the same year I built my Freightliner a couple years ago he gave me some of his build truck models when he was a kid. Bill built this Acar around 1974 The headache rack and winch where scratch build. The headache rack was made from tree styrene parts some parts both models are missing parts and cannot be found. These trucks are so much like my 1.1 truck that when I was restoring my real truck with my dad it reminded me of the model. Enjoy the pics I have also included pictures of my 1.1 Autocar Edited July 23, 2016 by Pete68 Pictures wouldn't load
Tesla Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 Great looking models and you did a terrific job restoring the 1:1.
extmcdriver Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 The models look great, the 1:1.....................SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kilrathy10 Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Nice set of trucks....Both big and small.....Awesome builds.....Nice work on the headache rack using sprue trees.....Very nice work....And that big one looks pretty darned nice....What a rig....
Pete68 Posted July 29, 2016 Author Posted July 29, 2016 Thanks guys I enjoyed building both 1.1 and 1/25 it was a blessing to have my brother give me some of his early builds also
SpreadAxle Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 I like both builds and the real thing is really sharp. It's always nice to still have builds from decades ago.
Lordmodelbuilder Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Both trucks look great! Your real truck is cool too!
Warren D Posted September 1, 2016 Posted September 1, 2016 All nice looking builds/re-builds. Bet the 1:1 took longer and cost more...... ;^)
