Hey guys here is the 2nd truck I ever built. I bought this truck 2 weeks after the kit came out what 10 years ago? I think and then 2 months later my wife got me the box trailer for fathers day.

So the truck is full bearings and a 55 turns motor and 6 tooth pinon and a MFU I also have a 5th wheel run by a mini servo and a few other minor up grades. I am going to stretch the frame 3 inches this fall. The decals were once again made my my local sign shop.

Thanks Much Rappy..

Thanks Donny she is simple but I have put a lot of miles on it I really want to stretch it but I am sort of up in the air on the idea too?? Now around here HD leases to other company's to carry for them so the trailers look good but the truck look like crap.

Nice work on the over all finish/paint.
Now you just need a few 1:14 Harleys and maybe some crate engines or something.
:D

I have a diecast harley in 1:15 and I think I have seen them on the bay. Good load, but you'd never see it in a van!

Apologies to all for digging up a thread that's over a year old, but what a beauty!

The paint is great, I especially like the way you did the front fenders and left the outer rim to match the rest of the truck.

The Harley logos on the mudflaps are particularly nice touch too. Would love to see that truck and mine side by side at a show, but distance prevents unfortunately. Your trailer really finishes it off, it makes me want to put together a HD trailer for my rig. Nice to know you still have one of your earliest trucks.
