Nice!

That last green Dodge van on the trailer looks like an old Bell Telephone truck.

Could have been.... it's a stripped umnit,just like Ma Bell would have used. Paul

That Dodge truck really suits the car transporter. I have the transporter and have never found a truck in my fleet that goes well with the transporter.

I only wish I had a Dodge L700 so my trailer could be connected.

A great build well done.

I haven't built the L700 yet, but I intend to. What can you expect with the castings. The mounds are 40years old (give or take).

I just Started on mine. I spent the first night with a #11 blade cleaning flash off all the parts. So far the parts have gone together well, but I've only put the engine together so far.

I googled dodge trucks and also dodge L600 and found a few pics and catalog photos. The info seems few and far between.As for the flash... remember this tooling is 40 years old. Paul

And for just a little over $20 you can get a semi, trailer and a model car.

The car hauler looks nice, I like the colors you picked too.

Could have been.... it's a stripped umnit,just like Ma Bell would have used. Paul

When I first started with Ma Bell in 1996, my "assigned vehicle" (as the bosses call it) was a 1977 Chevy Van. It only had 21000 miles on it! It looked like it had been through a war though. I wouldn't be surprised if its still around somewhere. The heater didn't work and it only had an AM radio. There was no passenger seat anymore and I think there was a family of squirrels living in it.

When a/c became standard equipment on the vehicles they used, the company would pay extra to either remove it or have it disabled. Go figure.

You can check out this site as well for old Dodge info: http://www.olddodges.com/index1.htm There are some good pics & info on all of the old Dodge trucks. Even the Big Horn.

Thanks guys, you found some that I have not. You're right, info on this truck has been more of a challenge than I'm used to.

Paul,

This is a great looking rig. I like the weathering. This truck would look great photographed outside on a sunny day.

[Diesel Gypsy]

Lovly build.

Great weathering.
