Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

International 9400 Eagle Truck Tractor - By Jim Groeneweg


Here's another view of Jim Groeneweg's great looking International 9400 model. This model features a cast resin cab that Jamie Groeneweg built the mold master for. Jim Groeneweg then took his upcoming Jacobs Models International 9400 cast resin cab kit and mounted it on a Promotex Ford Aeromax chassis. He added fuel tanks from Jacobs Models' Ford LTL kit (modified slightly) and added his cast resin sleeper box to resemble a 52" flat top. The exhaust stacks are out of the scrap box. There's a Promotex tool box on right side and semi scratchbuilt battery box on left side. The mirrors are Herpa CH Mack as are other detail items (antenna, convex mirrors) are various plastic peices. The trailer is the Promotex 48' flatbed that Jim made to resemble a Dorsey and topped it off with a load of lumber from Chooch Enterprises of Redmond, WA. Jim detailed the ends, tie bands, and and the gap beween the lifts (or bundles). Also shown in Photo Gallery 107.
