After some serious digging on the internet and EBAY, I found a 1934 Ford BB (1:43). The price was right and I commenced to bid on the baby. Needless to say I got blown out (outbid) and I spent some more time hunting. I was able to get one at the right price, no sooner than it hit my work I had it apart in less than five minutes.
The plan is to scratch build a flat bed, a quick repaint, and affix one of our T&L Critter cabs to the back. The goal is to have something nice and period correct to advertise on the Maine Narrow Gauge mobile display.
If anyone out there knows were to get good looking tires, and that are scale correct I'll give them a T&L diesel critter kit for free! Though time is wasting our show season starts soon and we want to get on that table.
Thanks in advance.
