This construction site fuel and lube truck from Chester Fesmire is a Wiking Peterbilt with scratchbuilt pit fenders and bumper, headlamps from another Wiking piece and aluminum tube exhaust stacks. The bed is from a Smokey Mountain rail car load with capacitors from an old radio for waste oil tanks and a scratchbuilt lube hose reel on a piece of diamond plate from Alloy Forms. Wheels and off-road tires from Herpa. The ladder is a cut down N scale Langley item and the hose on top is telephone wire with aluminum tube fittings on the ends.
