Great idea for a project! I've always loved the looks of the Autocar trucks. Very ambitious and challenging. Your progress so far looks amazing. I'll be following your build closely.

That's impressive! I've wanted to try one of these big rigs for a bit. I hope you continue to post progress.
Thanks,
John
Keep up the great work!

On the Bench: Artesania Latina (aka) Artists in the Latrine 1/75 Bluenose II
I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Autocars may have big in the Mass area, but down in the NYC area, Mack Mixers were king!
Geat job. Love the topic you picked
WOW! This turned out great! It looks so seamless, like it came from the manufacturer that way. Your scratchbuilding/kit-bashing work is stunning. Excellent choice of colors and company logo!
Very nice!!!
That turned out really well! I dig those mixer rigs. Looks spot on
Great stuff!

As someone who drove RediMix trucks in his youth, my only comment is that the truck is "too clean"
Not sure about the best way to replicate the long green hose from the water tank.
It might want the clearance poles often found on (or added to) the front bumper.
A beautiful example of a rarely modeled truck.
Mind, now that you have something of a "donor" available, you could do like many redi-mix outfits fo, and build it as a water truck.
Very cool. Your work is always impressive.

Modeltruckbuilder Clearance poles? You mean "Rookie Poles". Don't believe in them so I don't put them on my builds.
LoL.When you drive the redimix you get sent to places trucks can't go. So, you need visual aids to convince contractors the truck won't fit.
Mind the outfit I worked for used the clearance poles to stack extra mirrors on. Whcih was a mixed blessing. As, while it was handy to be able to see the distracted lunkhead in the 260ZX tailgating under the discharge chute, having them getting ripp off and knocked askew either on the jobiste or just parked in the yard, was a pain.
Still, an excellent build of a complicated subject.
Love seeing your work. Super job on this kitbash.

Just because I noticed doesn't mean I care. You've taken your shots at me with your "nice build but too clean" and "so clean it almost hurts" comments over the years as well. So, how about we just leave it at that and move on
