Ok finally finished the wrecker. In my opinion, it could have turned out better, but I'm satisfied with it. It's my first custom truck. Any comments or criticism is welcome. I put a flame to the tip of the exhaust to simulate a used, burnt look.

wow that is one awesome wrecker the wheelbase is so BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH long it would be a royal bitch in tight situations but the lonestar mates up nice to the bed definitely a looker!! Nice build

Nice work, Man....Turned out really nice.....I like the way you opened up the cab to reveal the Lonestar's excellent interior......Nice custom touches on that, too.....I just did the same thing with the Prostar I'm building....That interior is just too nice not to be seen.....Great work....

Thank you JT. Yeah I wasn't going to open it up, but I did some research by looking at other peoples Lonestars, especially Modeltruckmafia's ones. He did a couple of custom Lonestars and did up the interiors. So I just put my touches on it. Not the best, but good in my opinion. It was hard to try and figure out where to cut the inside out, but I managed.

Also big thanks to Ben Wicker for some of the resin parts for the interior.

Nice job on the custom, that thing is beautiful. I would hate to have to wash and wax that truck, it is loooooooooooooooooooooong!

Happy you liked my lonestar interior.You did a great job. I'm actually going to follow your idea as I like it very much and do an extended sleeper wrecker as well.

Now that's a wicked tow truck. Got a clear image of the sleeper back wall?

Of the mural? Or the outside of the back wall? They both have a mural on them. I will try and take a clearer picture when I get home

If it turns out as great as your past 2 lonestars, I can't wait to see it!

Thank you. I was going to fun it through some dirt to get it dirty, but I would ruin all the time I put into the paint job

Very sharp build, nice work on all the personal touches.

Thank you
