I see some similar projects on here so I thought I would put up my project. An AMT K-123 that I built in the 80s then a couple of years ago decided to turn into a wrecker. An AMT Pete wrecker tow bed cut down to fit the stock frame length, modified hydraulic cylinders for the boom and modified winches and other added bits as the spirit moves me.

That is very nice. I am building one of those now, and it is neat to see one that has already been finished.

The trim like the mirrors and grab handles must be difficult to put on. I see there are no holes in the body for placement.

I don't remember how I put them on the first time but as they fall off I put them back on with super glue. I used the box art for locations. This one is not finished. I have a lot of details to add and a little weathering.
