An Auto-Carrier - Trucklover - 03-31-2009

Here is an Auto-Carrier Truck that i have spent the past couple hours building and detailing. I added detail parts to the Promotex Mack CH603 from Plano Models. The Auto-Carrier is from Walthers and came from the Auto-Loading Facility Kit. I have 2 of these Auto-Carriers, both are built, but i have to detail the other cab for it, so ill post that one when i finish it...

But for now, here is this one:

I added Front Fender Mirrors, Front Fender Corner Posts, and a Diamond Tread Cross-Over Platform to the cab from Plano Model Detail Parts. I also added Mack Mirrors, grabs horns, and the famous Mack Bulldog to the front hood

Ed, Jim, Ralph, Herc, and Nick, thanks guys for the comments. I like this one so much i think i might to another like this. I had already started doing one for a Kenworth T-600 with a Flat Top Sleeper, but man i like the look of the Mack Cab pulling an auto-carrier Misngth Misngth
