Ford F60H wrecker scalemodel in progress...

[Alex van de Wetering]

Well David,

The front end of the chassis, the first and second axle, fueltanks and wheels are taken from the Tamiya Ford (cab 12) Quad-kit. The cabin is taken form Italeri's Chevrolet 15-cwt-kit.
Everything else is scratchbuild form platic sheet, rods and strip.
The chassis, rear springs, and trailing axle are constructed according to drawings that Dirk Leegwater sent me.
The rear body is constructed according to the picture you sent me and according to a picture from a book. The Holmes wrecking equipent is being constructed according to detail pictures of the Diamond T Wrecker.
I am converting the Italeri chevrolet-cab 13 into a Ford cab. Allthough hard to see on the picture, I have allready removed the Chevrolet engine grille and engine hood inside the cabin to replace it with a Ford type.
