@ James,
Yes, the original looks like this
the body is in the works. The body is not 100% looking to the original, and wanted the Lone Star times make as Wrecker.
@ Peter, it iss very easy ;-) for the Paint job used these 2 K Clearcote from Glasurit.
the color is easy to apply and dries very quickly.
For the surface used the Color from Alclad
as far as I'm up to now
Greeting Guido

Guido,
You should submit that to the "Emergency Vehicles Campaign."
Your work is truly amazing and you create vehicles that no one else does. I'm sure there are model companies who would want your skills.

Awesome job, I was also thinking of doing a Lonestar wrecker using the Revell kit as a starting point.
