Thank you.
On to the next project to continue to clear off the workbench
Alloy forms used to sell this junk auto pack. They usually contain 5 auto shells from their vehicle line that are either intentionally damaged (dents ect) or they are 'seconds' that the casting process didn't work out. I bought two of these packs off ebay as I'm planning of a scrapyard on the layout. However in one of the packs was the cab of their 55' chev three ton stakebed truck in fairly good shape. I figured I could make something out of it besides a junkyard cab.
Since I already had the 55 stakebed I think I'll make a tow truck out of this cab. I used the original truck to start to build a new frame out of styrene. I still have to source wheels and a wrecker body but with the cab aready here, why not see what I can do?
