Thanks much its about as good as it is going to get with out throwing tons of money at it to get rid of the wedico toy look but it was meant to be a low budget build with a objective of a better looking truck.

Well I got my Old School Thermoking reefer in from a good buddy of mine going to get it painted up to match the frame of the truck and get the trailer repainted..

Paul,
That truck is sick for a bunch of scrap parts love the old school paint job I remember when those trucks were running up and down the highway with those exact same paint jobs... awsome work.

Love the way this whole setup has turned out Paul! Color combo on the tractor is so retro....just like they were from the factory! Awesome job!

Thanks for the great comments Alex and Frank..

I got a chance to get some better picks of the truck now with the trailer looking better but I still have details to do on it still.

Tamiya Cowboy, what realism. The cab reminds me of the one fueling ahead of me today, only took a hundred gallons and was on his way!
