Default This is my favorite FGD build.
Freddy was definitely great at thinking outside the box and his loader made out of a tractor is by far my favorite.



RIP Freddy
Travis

This will be my cherished build of Freddy's since he built it for me and finished it and I was just waiting for him to get feeling better to ship it out to me.



Thank You Freddy!

This my favorite - it reminds me of what he always told me - keep it simple. They are well built - clever details and what i think is what our hobby is about - having fun.....




Dats all folks!

This is Freddy's box on my Mack. It has been used and abused and is holding up well.

I loved all of his builds but two favourites are the street sweeper and I think he did a Ford F350 snow plough too....I really would love to own one of his creations.

Hi all. Haven't been doing anything with the hobby for awhile and heard the sad news about Freddy from Alfy the other day. This one is my personal favorite because it was Freddy that finally took my parts and day dreams and turned them into a reality. Thank you Freddy. You will be missed. Joe
