Thats looking great. 

I’ve pretty much finished up the major construction on this one. I sanded down the joint where I shortened it.

I added the landing legs back in a new position with a crank from a WWIII German bar jack.

I reworked the top section so it only has the one access cover.

 

Rerouted one of the tubes to be the rear vapor pipe. You can also see the scratched up storage tubes for the hoses on both sides. I also added three marker lights on the top center of the tank. I still need to add wires for them. Rear black out lights from an M113 added as well.

Here are the two drain lines with scratched valves and handles.

I also scratched up the spare tire holder. You can also see the hubs for the 5 ton wheels that will go on it. They are casts of the AFV Club M54 hubs.

A few more details to add such as warning placard triangles and a few wires here and there. It is getting closer to what I am after.

Thanks Tom and Gamera.  I should have an update tonight.  I was able to get some more done on it last night.

That's cool Gino! Looking forward to seeing more! 

HeavyArty,

I recently saw that Revell is bringing back a 1/32 Mack semi tractor and a GMC General semi trailer.  With any luck they may bring back the trailers in 1/32 soon.  I know that our Hobby Lobby a few years ago carried that 1/32 Mack tanker truck kit but I haven't seen it for a few years now.

I started converting my old Monogram trailer into an M1062. So far, I have cut the tank down to a scale 36’ 3", cut off all the pipes and am reworking the top to have only one access cover, etc. I will be adding 5ton tires to it as well.

Here it is so far.

The M1062 Bulk Fuel Trailer was first used in the late '80s and is still used today. Based on that, it could/was pulled by any 5 ton tractor truck in use in that range. This would include M54s and M818s, M932s, M915s, and M1088s.

I plan to put it behind an M1088…eventually ( I have to build the M1088 as well).
