Peterbilt 362 Hay Truck 1:22

[Bricksonwheels]

It's been a few months since my last build, and I wanted to start the new year with something fresh. I have never build a Peterbilt 362 cabover, and a Hay ride has always been on my wishlist. This type of truck is often used in that line of transport.

As always I have used Lego to create the model. The hay is actually made from rabbit food :-), and is pressed into bales with a special press I created for the purpose.

This is in 1:22 scale made from genuine Lego bricks with tiltable cabin, working doors and lots of chassis and engine detail. Truly chrome plated bricks are added for the finishing touch.

I'm telling you man you always have the coolest stuff made of legos. I remember when I played with em I wasn't nearly as good.

[Danno]

Wow!

Very nice. Can you make hay out of Legos?

[Bricksonwheels]

Thnx all, and chukyr... I thought about some options, but i bought a package of rabbit food, and pressed the bales myself :-)

Dennis, usually I don't follow WIP threads, but I really wonder what the used Lego parts look like and how you proceed. Since I suppose that I am not the only one, so what about a pictorial WIP contribution?

I followed the link to your homepage - simply stunning! BTW how do you keep that cat from your models?

[Scalper]

Wicked I love lego.. that should be in the Lego movie.

[ScaleModelAddict]

That looks really cool. I didn't see Legos at first.

Well, I can do that. At the moment I am updating a few of my models for the 2014 events. I attend a small mix of the bigger modelbuilding events and Legoshows in Europe.

These models (most of them can be found on this forum as well) are existing ones that just get a small revamp, but after that there is new work scheduled, and I can take some WIP pictures along.

There are no building instruction, I use refference material from internet only, and brochures from manufacturers, but you could get a nice impression from the bricks used during the WIP.

ooh.. yes the cat... well he's quite fond of Lego. When I build he's usually sitting interrested on a pile of bricks half asleep watching me. He has never destroyed or eaten anything though.

He's too lazy for that.

All th eothers thanks for your comments!
