DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 29 Posted January 29 Nothing real special, mostly stock, just covered the deck with wood, moved mud flaps to the back and added some bracing to the headache rack. 11
Pete68 Posted January 29 Posted January 29 Nice looking trailer Brian goes well with the Pete. Thanks for sharing.
Bronzekeg Posted January 29 Posted January 29 great looking rig build and nice photos Brian. from my favorite era of trucks!
The Brush Posted January 30 Posted January 30 Nice to see wood on a model, Looks good with matching paint. Well done.
BK9300 Posted January 30 Posted January 30 (edited) I agree about the wood deck - looks terrific, right down to the bolt head detail at the plank ends. Edited January 30 by BK9300

The wood was .030" thick, so I framed out the bed and center rails with .030" styrene so that the wood would be level with the bed. 19 hours ago, BK9300 said: I agree about the wood deck - looks terrific, right down to the bolt head detail at the plank ends. Thanks Brian!! It's balsa wood, so it is really soft and easy to mark. 16 hours ago, Rockford said: Love it! Thanks Steve!!

I do like the way it turned out.
trick my mixer Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Refreshing to see 2 hole budds painted white on the truck and trailer since everyone including myself always use the chrome plated alcoas. Looks real good..!!!
