Default Rubber Duck

I purchased this cab from a guy in the UK.Convoy is one of my favorite trucker movie.So here is the cab very well built. A king hauler chassis. Some steel RC4WD wheels for the front.Can't seem to locate any for the rear as of yet.

Yeah i'd love to see the actual duck hood ornament on of these Rubber Duck builds. Would really be the icing on the cake.

"Tenfour tenfour - here is the rubber duck..."

I love this movie.

For me is it the "godfather" of trucker movies

The cab is perfect and i can´t wait to see more.

In our german forum a user also built the "Rubber Duck" Mack with trailer. Perhaps you can still find here a few details for your project.

I love what you are doing, you're doing the duck justice. Now I have a silly question, is the hood ornament just a TAD to big??? LOL!!!

Thanks! Since the hood ornament that I have is a little big. I was going to try to carve one out of styrene or bondo. Not sure what else to do. Found them in 1/24 scale. If all else fails I can use the bulldog of a bruder.
