Here are pictures of a model I’ve just completed. It was made from pictures the owner (a lady) suppied me with. The real challenge was the front fenders. The total lenth of the model is over 50 inches long.

No, these are wheels I’ve bought and modified to look like the originals.

Wow Alain, I’ve just come across you’re trucks and they are absolutely incredible. The attention to detail is terrific. I built a truck a while back and haven’t gotten around to posting it yet… and now it looks so plain compared to yours. Tres bien!
How about some up close pictures of the heavy duty machinery we can see in your other projects….

Hi Alain;
This is incredible!
Having made a model backhoe with my son, I can appreciate the amount of time and attention these projects require.
Excellent workmanship. Very impressive.
