Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

International R-180 Truck Tractor - By Chester Fesmire


Chester Fesmire built this great model from one of Sheepscot Models' new International R180 resin kits and mounted it on the Sheepscot frame with an Alloy Forms front axle and differential and rear suspension cut & spliced from the parts box, Herpa six spoke wheels, mirrors, and exhaust. The foil for the 'stainless' steps are from a delaminated credit card. By the way, Chester notes that the casting on this resin cab was near perfect from the package.
