OK boys and girls, the workshop is back on line once again and I fancy a group build to get the juices flowing once more. So, anyone fancy a truck gb? ... 'Lonewolf', 'Fatty' or Mr Taylor sir, fancy joining me?
I'm still pondering over the details but I fancy a wrecker, mine would be 1/24 and possibly a kitbash, and no, before you ask, 'Gromit' will not be taking part! ... this will be a proper build.

Ayup Paul,
The subject is very much open for discussion. Either a straight OOB build or a conversion, basically, it's to promote the truck side of the hobby. I had planned on taking one of the old AMT kits in the stash and converting it to a wrecker based on a NYFD wrecker of the 70's / 80's.
So ... ideas anyone, but let's not get silly eh, we don't all have bottomless pockets, it was more of a buddy build than anything else.

Might just do it, I have 3 or 4 wagons awaiting build. They have been on hold until I can find a decent custom decal supplier.

Well I have made a start on my truck as it may take a while to build. I have a Volvo FH12 which is going to be a show truck so I can keep to my nice and shiny paint work. I will start a thread shortly once I have taken some pictures.
