1960 Auotcar aka "The Happy Scrapper"

[Rustycab]

I finished this build today- Something I started around Thanksgiving I started with the Autocar Dump Truck Kit
I extended the frame, scratchbuilt the rollback bed and three stage hydraulic rams. I copy cast the headache rack. I Fabricated the dual exhaust and bumper gaurds, The front wheels are my resin cast wheels and naturally I weathered it
It was a fun build- I am thinking of adding ome door decals, I just havent come up with anything I like yet

Nice build Craig. You really know how to make a truck look real.

Here is update to the last time I posted this recent completed build
Instead of a scrap hauler I turned it into an old used oil patch truck and added the slop tank and removed the third axle.
It won best of class this weekend at the local Hobbytown model car contest

Thanks for looking
