Default Re: My Winter Project part 1

Hi, thanks for all your comments.....to answer some of the questions ....lol.....
the reefer trailer is scratch biult and running on tamiya gear, it is a true to scale 53ft reefer which measures 43.5 inches.
The mack cab came from a friend of mine who has set himself up doing tamiya and scatch biulds. he holds the patent for the cab and a pod just like the one from convoy. If i am allowed to put his website on here i will do for anyone who wishes to contact him over the mack cab. Th sleeper pod on the back of mine is indeed statch biult from styrene as is the rear fenders on both trucks.
Finally sorry im not from canada but from England. but i do have a brother living in east canada who i will be visiting next year

Very interesting on the Mack cab! I would say have your friend contact us ( one of the mods) here and he can sign up for a vender spot. I'm sure he can do well with Mack cabs! Thanks!

Brian

The true 1/14 53' conversion is 45 7/16 inches long. The 43 1/2 would be a scale 50' 9", which is 2' 3" short of the 53' length

No one would notice the difference without a calculator and a measuing tape. It looks great and the colors are excellent. You, sir, are a craftsman

Be happy, have fun, & drive safely
