Nice clean vintage roll back and toys.  Only nit pick would be the stacks.  Most would be under bed exhaust to keep the customers vehicles a little cleaner.  Still a beauty.

Very nice work (as usual) Cruz.  Saw a guy at PennCon that had an angled bed truck with the whole bed made out of thin stainless steel. He had another with a trailer made of of the same steel.  They were either soldered of CA'd but you couldn't see the welds.  I thought they were great but I think you would have taken the award away from him.  Keep up the great work.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.

Thanks guys. The bed was scratch built using Evergreen and Plastruct products. The kit was originally a boxed, delivery type truck converted into a flatbed. The only thing I used from that box was the floor which was covered with the diamond plate sheet that you see here.
