Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Ford F-850 Grain Truck - By Günter Storch


With the 2017 Fulda Meet coming up we wanted to highlight more of Günter Storch's modeling which is likely to be on display. This Athearn Ford F-850 with grain box was weathered to represent one of the many old trucks running in grain/farm service still today. It's an out of the box model a little bit detailed with some Preiser ladders and a shortened tarp from Lonestar Models (this can be purchased from Lonestar as a detail part in various colors). Günter wanted this model to look like this truck was very old and used so he gave it a very rusty and dirty look.
