Just get that paint on and show us the finished item Cliff - I can't wait.
I get some good comments on my stuff from you, but I would never even attempt to scratchbuild a complete truck/trailer rig! Keep it up mate.

Sexy!

Cheers

Cliff this is great to have something to remind people of to what the men in them days had to drive. That was one tough job in those days.

A lot of people never dreamed trucks looked like that, and you brought the detail out perfect.
Kerry

You have added a lot of detail to this one Cliff. I am looking forward to seeing it all painted up and loaded. Bravo Mate.

Shaping up really nice Cliff....

Well you managed to built another wonderfull vehicle there mate.
I really like the shape of the trailer. Wonder where that comes from... Probably something like more load capacity. But great job on that. I love the little details on this vehicle like the Condenser and such.

Great Job can`t wait to see it finished.

'Roo, my man, you've failed me !!!!

Remember this from way back ??
Other home made mods were also made with large holes cut in the front of the bonnet and 1lb coffee tins added as air scoops. The mud guards were always cracking and falling off so the idea was to leave them off. But the headlamps were mounted on the guards so half a spring was welded to the chassis as a lamp stand.

Well, I see the springs holding head lamps, but no coffee tin air scoops !!!!
I've been waiting since project start for the coffee tins ...
I'm not sure how I can go on ....

Sorry I am late Cliff,
This set up is looking very very cool I can't wait to see it finshed

That goes for me also Brother Pouch. The scratched trailer pic is just marvelous. Your models are usually one offs, so are you as a modeler. Wow!

Another outstanding scratch built model from "The Master"

Verie nices done,Cliff.I hope you will do the honorable thing,and find a way to insert MV LENSES in the headlight bezels.Though,it would look nice with one popped out. (++) (++)

Thanks Carl. Yes lenses will be added to the headlight buckets. Progress on this is at the detail/wash stage of the painting process. I will have the drums for the load early next week so another 10 to 14 days should see it finished.

cheers
Cliff
