mackd RD 600 forester repair

[mackd]

I decided a repair my models forest that have been damaged in an accident.This model is a flat road train modified to transport logs.I ntil ' at the end of the 1980s forest carriers used these trailers then forest specially designed for wood arrived.

Before repair

I pickled slightly because Easy Off and mastic are not compatible and my Hood is scracht built there a lot of PuTTY.

The other mack is a forestry truck also.

The damaged trailer.

removed 5 feet to have two 25 feet

You can get an idea of the look that it will have finished.He will be responsible for logs.

Alain,

Fantastic Mack RB-600 rebuild & a spot on hood scratch build. That would be a great offering to have in resin! Nice to see the B train flats for logging getting a face lift & repair as well.

Thank you for sharing,

I finally finished the RB, I had some problems of finishes that have been a bit long to solve.There are a few small details a finish I'll have at the end

I decided not to put the train bi and build a new trailer.To grow a Deloupe 48 feet.
