bobss396 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Finally finished it up. I'm also happy with it. The engine, brake booster/master and shifter are VCG Resins. Wheels and tires are Jay's Resin Wheels. Boom and tow truck parts are from a lot I picked up on eBay. Paint is Tamiya, I went with Ace Hardware gray on the chassis since it holds up to being manhandled. The grille was opened from the back. Decals are Chimneyville. The front bumper and tow plate are 100% scratch built. Light Bar is an AMT parts pack item. I have another in the works started in 1999. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Jay's wheels and tires are always good. Those look perfect on this one. Awesome work on that bumper... looks like it's up to the job of pushing another vehicle and/or light demolition work. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincen47 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 What an enjoyable looking build. Thanks for posting it. Great use of aftermarket parts to create something unique. One of the best things to me, is how you opened up the grille. That makes a huge difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
