Oebele Deelstra sent us these photos of his version of the Mack M75SX as heavy haul tractor. Oebele's model is of course based on the resin model kit from Ralph Ratcliffe Models. A heavy duty cardanic 136Te Eidal fifth wheel has been added. A heavy frame can placed over the fifth wheel to contain ballast (shown above). A heavy tow coupling can be placed either rear or front. The front axle is realistically shaped, with steerable front wheels, even the steering cylinders work and the rear wheel suspension rocks. The truck has been overhauled and features many contemporary safety features. More pictures can be found at www.heavytransport.nl
