1978 Dodge Tow Truck WIP 2/17 Update

Posted on Feb 18, 2012

Hello, all! I'm finally getting to do my own WIP here. I haven't built any models for quite a while due to "real world" projects but I'm taking a short break from those and want to complete a "simple" build. Those of you familiar with my previous postings know that I'm into kitbashing, scratchbuilding and detailing for the most part. I have a project on the back burner for which I made many scratchbuilt details and have not had the time or patience to attempt to complete the build. (This new build will not be one of those.) I'm using the cab and chassis from the Little Red Truck kit and the tow truck "chariot", wheels, tires and push bumper. My goal is to use as many of the kit parts and as few scratchbuilt parts as possible. Many of the chassis and mechanical details are inaccurate as supplied and I am not on a mission to correct those. I'm aiming for a nice shelf model that would still look good on display at a show. I had some problems with Photobucket earlier tonight but hopefully that will not happen as I move along with this build. I hope you enjoy it and I welcome all comments and suggestions.
