Kitbashing Athearn A-P-A Ford C

[Rscott417]

After 6 months I finally worked on the Mack trucks. Since i picked up the Athearn Mack R A-P-A truck I wont be doing the Mack MC/MR tractor in A-P-A markings. I still just need to print out the decals for the box truck. The extra parts I used on the box truck were alloy forms mirrors and bulldog ornament, and Ralph Ratcliffe models bumper. I made the windshield for both cabs out of the clear plastic sheets used for overhead projectors. I also switched the wheels on both trucks. I tried sanding down the ribbed sides on the box truck to make it smooth but you can still see some of the indents.




The mirrors are from the Ford cab, Ralph Ratcliffe models bumper, Alloy Forms bulldog ornament, air horn, exhaust and air intake, and 1/4 fenders (without them the truck was front heavy and the rear wheels stayed up in the air)
