Chariots of Fire Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 For several months I've been working on this 7 ton dump that Pierce Arrow built in 1928. Still a ways to go with the body, lifting mechanism and engine. The frame will be painted black like the radiator and running boards. Doors need to be hung and painted as well.
fordh8r Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Nicely detailed parts. Are they made of brass?
j_nigrelli Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 what scale? looks like quite an accomplishment
Chariots of Fire Posted February 27, 2009 Author Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Wonderful craftsmanship ! Tim The scale is 1/25. Most of the build is brass; frame, springs, front axle, hood. The cab, gas tank and radiator are plastic. Eventually it will have a dump body but I need some detail measurements and photos to do that part. Edited February 27, 2009 by Chariots of Fire

Old Albion Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I agree with the other comments this is a superb build and great craftsmanship. I will definately keep a lookout for updates on this one.
