Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Ford F-600 MOW Truck - By Fritz Dahlen


Here's a photo of a truck Fritz Dahlen bought on Ebay and rebuilt as a 4x4 welding/service truck for his railroad. It is a Lindberg Ford F-600 cab on what looks like a Roco military chassis. Fritz scratchbuilt the interior, cut window glass from clear acetate (interior and glass were missing), constructed a solid front axle tube, added drive shafts, added wide front wheels and tires from Herpa, rear wheels, tires and mirrors from A-Line and mud flaps from sheet styrene. Decals from Microscale and Pen-Bay complete the job.
