Re: Paystar 5000

Finally got a little progress done on this. Made up a front bumper for it. Need to sand and repaint it, the masking tape pulled some paint off when I removed it. Mounted a polised deck plate, fuel tanks,winch, headache rack and antenneas.

Thanks Steve!!! Been to long since I worked on this. Paystars have always been my favorite truck. Thinking I might be needing some custom boxes for the frame.

Re: Paystar 5000

That trailer is impressive, but I really like your Paystar. Nice job with all the styrene work that went into it. I've never been very good with styrene.

Thanks !!! Red is a great color for a heavy haul.

Re: Paystar 5000

This truck looks awesome! Quite the scratch-built rig! Is the bumper going to be red to match the cab?

Re: Paystar 5000

Thanks!! My first plow truck was a paystar. With out a doubt it easier to clean the windsheild. I like the look of flat fender trucks, they look mean like a true work horse.

Re: Paystar 5000
