Well i completed another auto-carrier last night. Well i didnt really complete it, they bth still needs to be weathered an decaled for a private hauler.... Anyways, i finished adding on the details, and im quite happy with how this one turned out. This one is a Promotex Kenworth T-600 with a Flat Top Sleeper. I added Front Fender Mirrors, Diamond Tread Frame Crossover Platform and Frame Crossover steps, as well as the supplied Promotex Cab Mirriors, Horns, and Grabs. I also moved the fifth wheel back on the frame. The Auto-Rack was custom fitted on the cab, and like the other, the trailer is a Walthers Auto-Carrier. Here are 5 pics of the new one and 6 more of the other one, the Mack CH603 Day Cab Auto-Carrier:            |

The fender-mount mirrors really dress those babies up! Very Nice, Josh!

These look great, I really like the mirrors and the bulldog. So when are you going to drill all the holes out in the racks J/KPost some pictures when they are "done"

The trucks look really good. I've been interested in trucks since I was a wee lad. I've been amassing a collection of HO trucks of my own that I need to get to detailing.
If I may make a suggestion. Shouldn't the smoke stacks on the KW and Mack stick outside of the car rack? You want to get the hot and dirty exhaust gases as far from the fresh paint on the new cars as possible.

Hi Josh, thanks for the comments ;D I dont even know how many trucks i have, i boxes and boxes of unassembled kits with both trailers and cabs, and then there is the boxes with the assembled trailers, the box with the weathered trailers, and the boxes with the assembled cabs LOL You are right about the stacks on the trucks, technically they should be outside of the rack. But i have seen a few that do have there stacks going directly through the racks like mine do, only they were pointed outwards at the tops. This is something i originally overlooked and it will be a bit of a project when i do get around to fitting them with there stacks pointing towards the outside lol |
