A little side project. I needed a heavy duty truck in scale 1/24 to move various trailers. I had this MB truck, but it was in scale 1/20.



So I decided to convert it into a heavy duty Mack DM 800. Years ago I bought a cab with hood for a DM 600 and with a bit of work this became the cab for the DM 800. I made a new frame and front axle and managed to fit all the RC equipment in. The drive train was fine. It has a 2-speed gearbox and the tandem axles work OK. there is still a bit of finishing work to be done obviously.
