That is really a convincing build.... It really looks like you just put the real one in a reducing-machine!!!!

x 2, Brian - the dump sides look also very convincing - where rocks hammered against the side walls creating those bumps and dents - extraordinary realistic !!!

 Thanks Helmut

Brian, I think you always keep on surpassing yourself and this last effort is a good example!

Resin kits are fantastic and rare subjects but come with additional challenges but it doesn't seem to stop you, it's nothing short of high caliber work.  As usual you present us with a truck where you have to look twice to realize that it is not a real one and that is an indisputable mark of success!

I take my hat off to you! ?

Thanks for the kind words Francis!!!

At first I thought that your outdoor photos were of the inspiration truck you were going to build a model of ! Real world quality stuff for sure. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

 Thanks so much Tom!!

Thanks for your answer, Brian. And thank you for sharing your method of bending the aluminum sheeting. If I got it right you installed a kind of double bottom in the dump box, that's a splendid idea. It really did the job of realism. Juergen

Yes, the aluminum floor covered the plastic floor.
