The start of a fleet

[Turbo590]

Jerry,

The GMC General is leaning to be my favorite one out of them all.

Nice work, Kurt

The trailer is a cut down moving van--I did the "chop suey" on 2 of them. I did learn a few thing of of it, so if I do it again, I know what not to do. I should have taken some out behind the axle.

[cowboysevens]

with the axles where they are your getting better wheight distribution, lol but i can see where you would want them back a lil more. do you have a set of doubles everything, lol? hope ya know im gonna be hitting you up for tips on biulding the double tanks!

A few small updates. The 9500 is just about done, and decided a flatbed would look good behind it. Minor work left on the flatbed.

Got a little more done on the Crackerbox. Sourkraut had the 6-71 Detroit that I thought would be perfect for it.

And that's it for now.

hey jerry is that "heavy haul" trailer a RGN (removable goose neck) ? that 9500 and flatbed look good together, nice job.

That fleet looks good! Might just buy me a couple of Revell Pete 359's and start my own fleet.

[SpreadAxle]

I figured you were going for the 6-71. Very appropriate for that truck.

chuggin' right along. Yellow is now in the fuel business. Also got a couple of things done on the General.

"I see yellow trucks"

Calling it finished on the Yellow fleet (for now).

Fleet looks really nice. The General came out really well. There's just something about the GMC General for me. Nostalgia, I guess. All those GMCs and a lone Ford.

[Modelsbyroni]

Fleet looks great Jerry.

Nice start on a really cool concept!
