Mack RD800 & Lowboy Trailer - By Bob Pullen


This is a Ralph Radcliffe resin Mack RD800 cab mounted on a frame from Athearn. Fuel tanks and battery boxes are from Bob's parts box and wheels and tires are from Herpa/Promotex. The rear fenders are from an old Roco tanker trailer. The door mirrors and the fender mirrors are from Sheepscot Models and the signal lights are from Alloy Forms. The exhaust stack is from a Promotex Mack CH and the trailer is a Custom Finishing lowboy with a scratchbuilt gooseneck to fit the tractor. The rig is painted in the Bucyrus-Erie colors using Humbrol paints.
