JerseeJerry55 Posted February 9, 2020 Author Posted February 9, 2020 Picked her up tonight. Unsure if I do it as the dump truck or the tractor.

k100 Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 I think I’ll build it as the dump truck , I built a tractor vision years ago . I would like to get Indiana state highway decals for it.

Rob Hall Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 There was a dump truck only version of this kit in the early 70s..never seen one, but I assume it's the same dump body as the snowplow, without the snowplow-specific features?

Personal friend made them, to copy our local Hwy Dept since my Dad retired from there years back. Couldn't find a decal maker otherwise.

BubbaBrown Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 Question, last couple big trucks i bought the instruction part numbers did not match the kit part numbers. if you got a good view I was ok but alot of stuff I couldn't. Really made it hard for me and swore to not purchase ever again unless they match up. So does the instruction numbers match ?
ranma Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 I just got the kit from Hobby Lobby. Price was cheaper than all the car/truck kit's . After using a 40% off coupon I paid $14.99 for it. I haven't opened the kit yet ,but it show's that it comes with complete with all the fifth wheel parts as well! So you could make the snow plow/dump truck or a medium duty with the fifth wheel.
Jim B Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 Good score. Yes, it does. You can build it as either a dump truck (with or without plow) or a tractor. It really needs a wing plow, though.
ranma Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 13 minutes ago, Jim B said: You can build it as either a dump truck (with or without plow) Yes but the hard part will be getting a International F-2575 Kit to make the plow/dump truck. Odot Here in Ohio has used International's since the 1980's!
ranma Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 44 minutes ago, Jim B said: hard kit to find. I know but with round two bringing out long ago truck kit's Maybe Just maybe they will be so kind to reissue the S-series kit/kit's.. (I Hope)!!!!
Jim B Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 I'd like a couple of S-series trucks, at a reasonable price. That would be great.
