Chuck Most Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 This is my "junkyard runner", build mostly from spares and cast-offs from other projects. It's been retrofitted with a Cat V8 and eventually will be paired up with a single axle flatbed trailer loaded down with scrap metal.
Superpeterbilt Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Nice work Chuck, and just in time for the 2015 deadline. Im tooling around with a vintage single axle dump trailer that would look perfect behind this. This truck looks great with the buckshot tires on it. Great job
slusher Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Awesome model Chuck. Very realistic weathering.
disabled modeler Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Awesome Chuck...! Where did you get those tires?
Atmobil Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 That looks really great, what headlights did you use to convert it into the quad lights? And what tires have you used?
Jim B Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Awesome job, Chuck. Very will done. I like the lug tires, too. Adding the 3208 is a cool idea.
Brinx Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Great looking little hauler, very nice weathering detail. Those mil-spec tires ought to handle those muddy junkyards with no trouble at all.
Chuck Most Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 Thanks guys. Headlights came from an AMT White Road Boss- they're the unused Western Star parts. Tires came from the IH Paystar mixer- the dump truck came with the same tires.
disabled modeler Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Thanks for the information Chuck...they look great on it!
kilrathy10 Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 Just a great example of how weathering can really be done well.....Very nice....Beautiful job....
tbill Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Chuck, you are the rust king! another rusty beauty, well done man.
OlSchoolRedo Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Great looking truck!! I have practiced weathering in the past,you and others have inspired me to pick up where i left off.I'll poke around in my unbuilt kits and find a likely candidate for the job,again nice work.
