Title: Livestock truck in 1/87
Post by: chester on July 19, 2009, 06:13:28 AM
I'm always looking to do something different with these Jordan pieces so as not to have them look just like all the rest we see populating HO layouts. I thought this one was a stretch until I happened across a photo on one of the historical image sites I frequent. The body is all styrene and the roll downs are tissue. You would think as many times as I've made a horses ass of myself, I would know how to model one by now.

Hiya, Chester:
I completely missed this thread until just now.  What a neat little truck.
Unusual subject, well done as usual. I just love the atmosphere of everything
you build, and this is no different.
Nice one.
