Real nice work. Can I ask what did you have to do to make the cargo door work properly ?

Thank you, and sorry for the late reply. With some sanding around the edges, removal of the ejector pin marks inside the tracks, a piece of Gorilla tape across the entire door, and A LOT of patience, it can be made to work rather well. I wish there was a secret, but it really just comes down to playing around with it until it works. The biggest pain is getting everything looking good, only to have it keep binding up on you.

I have 5 of these trailers so I need to find a way to get them to work right and your way seems to work well . Thanks for getting back to me

Holy geebus, not sure how more real that could look,  out park, you did knock this one, well done.

Impressive build! I've always liked this Ford body style so it's nice to see one that's built this well. I definitely would like to have one of these on my stash too... Anyway, your build turned out very nice. Especially that weathering is top notch. Excellent work.

Outstanding weathering, Payload and model!!

I can almost smell the grunge.  I could see brake lines inside the chassis rails-nice touch.  I have driven a flatbed version of this truck and let me say  ITS A HANDFUL!!

I just found this and all I can say is WOW!  Absolutely spot-on weathering and detailing.

Showed this to a friend that retired from Roadway as a mechanic and he said it was spot one as to how those old Fords looked coming into the shop!

Dude....This baby is awesome.....Weathering is just beautiful....Very nice.....Very nice work, My Man...

[Hermann Kersten]

Very nice, the weathering, also under the cab and the inside of the frontfenders, is really awesome and realistic.

The details are also great, gives this model the finnishing touch.

That looks great. Very convincing weathering. You're bringing back memories for a lot of us who grew up seeing these trucks everywhere.
