Hi All,

Here's a link to a preliminary look at my latest 4 stud
wide big rig. It's a twin trailer rig used to haul stuff
like concrete pipe.

I did not get much in the way of exciting features into the
truck, but it LOOKS cool. At least I think so.

It's loosely modelled after the LegoLand truck. Now I'll
have to get the new Fire truck set to get me some parts for
a hook and ladder - and more slicks!!!!

As always, comments and suggestions are welcome.

Cheers,

Ralph Hempel - P.Eng

It has kind of a modern Freightliner look to it. Kinda puny but nice. What was the effect you were going for with the front bumper? (25 years ago, 21-Mar-00, to lugnet.build)

(...) That's cool! I gotta admit, it looks a lot like my 5571 unless you try to focus on little details... Great job! I think I'm inspired to building some micro-scale stuff now... :-) -Shiri (25 years ago, 21-Mar-00, to lugnet.build)
