Built 2 years ago. This is a fictional build. It does not make much sense but just for the fun of it.
Mack tractor modified to a race car hauler
MPC kit modified to a single rear axle. Everything back of the cab is scratch built.
Vallejo colors and Future clear, brush painted of course.
Total overkill, big ass Mack transporting that little race car but it was a fun build regardless.
Thank you for looking

| Wow, Pierre. This is through the roof Awesome. Excellent scratching that hauler together and where have you been hiding that Allison Monte Carlo? It deserves a thread of its own , unless you already posted it and I missed it. Someday I want to do that Coke machine too. I built one back in 1972 that I want to compare it to. You can imagine how awful that build looks with none of the help we have today with computers and things to make model building a lot better. Again, Excellent build on this project. |

Thank, the hauler was fun to do. The MC is ok but deserves a rebuild. The AMT body is very good but it was painted 4 years ago when I was starting and it has that beginners look up close. The kit chassis is not good so when I rebuild it I will address that too. On the long to do list...

Holy moly!! That's a sexy looking hauler!! Top notch fab work and even more top notch creativity!!
I do disagree that it's "overkill" though.  |
