I can barely get kits together.  A complete scratch build of a M1070 just makes my head hurt.  Good luck, and looking forward to your progress.  Now, where's that Advil?

I know it is a different scale, and a slightly different truck, it may give you some inspiration.

Looks like a huge project, I am looking forward to seeing it. I would love to see it in 1/25 or 1/24 scale.

The cab looks good. If you'd like, I can provide you with D/L links for all of the tech manuals (-10/-20/-24/-34) and and technical bulletins for the M1070 and M1000 trailer. I use them as references to super detail the Hobby Boss 1/35 M1070 HET. The frame is pretty involved and contains many details which would be visible in 1/24 and the manuals come in handy.

Done! Check your email. You'll have more than enough for reference material. Just in case that you aren't familiar with the site, Prime Portal is the best photographic reference on the web for all types of military equipment. There are 24 links to the M1070 on site, with tons of photos.

This is well on its way to match all the other wonders you have built. Inspirational to us who are barely scratching the surface of scratchbuilding.

Your builds always amaze me. The level of scratchbuilding and the subjects you tackle are beyond my abilities and inspire me to try harder. I get excited when I can create a step bumper for a pickup truck !
