        Pete 352 truck and pup built as a California lumber hauler.  Made from a modified AMT 352 kit and scratch built trailer. The lumber load is made from aproximately 4000 coffee stir sticks and tied down with yellow ribbon.      Paul Bernard

        This Ford truck had the frame stretched, most of the tractor package was made from scratch, and the fenders over the front drivers were fashioned from spray paint can tops, the headache rack was scratch built, the bulk hauling trailer was made by grinding the big ends of two plastic drinking glasses to fit, then gluing them together, this was a real challenge as I almost gave up a couple of times, but I would have a new idea for fabricating and making the various pieces fit.     Don Parrish

        1/87th and 1/25th scale models based on trucks from O'hare Towing. Ever since the show Wrecked came onto TV I've wanted to build these models. The 1/25th unit uses the Wrecker body from the Revell Peterbilt Wrecker with 2 scratch built tool boxes at the front to extend the body. The cab is from an AMT T-600 with a scratch built roof and sleeper. The T-800 hood is from Spaulding truck and trading.     Doug Musey
