WOW! Beautiful truck, great work.

Getting back to work on the 50's resin tanker, took a break from this build once the tractor was completed.  Trailer is made up of two pieces that connect together, the front half is pretty good just required some sanding, the back half had some low spots that need attention, beginning to do the putty work.

Great looking project.

Is the trailer scratch built or did you have something to start from?

It looks like a trailer from Keystone Aluminum Model Miniatures now defunct, they did a few different versions of the "Duel" trailer, single and dual axle.

Correct Hakan, a Keystone piece.

Finally got a coat of paint and decals after a long break.

The body work on your tanker sure looks smooth under your paint - great job!

Great outcome!  All of the putty work came out flawless here.  And I like the color and tone too, gives that classic feel.

This is looking great. Great period piece. That's going to look cool hooked up to the old Ford.

Did you fab up that hood scoop?

Was an ebay resin piece marketed as a Pontiac Super Duty scoop, however, did not come with a front vent.
