This E. J. Davies Autocar prime mover with lowboy and crane are more of Ed Sweeney's outstanding modeling. The 4100 Manitowoc on the lowboy trailer was built using the Sheepscot 3900 crane as a basis along with a lot of scratchbuilding. The Autocar tractor uses a Sheepscot resin cab with a scratchbuilt frame. The dolly was built from scratch and the lowboy is a heavily modified Sheepscot lowboy. Tires and wheels are from Ralph Ratcliffe Models, Puget Sound, All World Models, and Athearn. Detail parts are from Dennis Aust, Sheepscot, Ralph Ratcliffe, Masterbilt, etc. Decals custom by Ed. Painting was done using an airbrush.
