Very nice job Animal! Wonderful work.
One question: is the paint job supposed to be glossy?

I built this truck from photos supplied by the driver of this truck. It was glossy at first as was most Guntrucks when they were newly painted. They didn't stay shinny for very long.

That's some nice work. I like these GT's they're pretty cool! I'm amazed by the photo from the rear - you really get the sence for how tall they are. Don't hit a turn to fast

Good work - I like the reference photos with the model.

These trucks were heavy and tall but I don't know of any that had overturned. The drivers were some of the best in our Units.
