Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

1920 Atterbury Truck - By Randy Sawyer


This model of a 1920 Atterbury Truck was constructed in early 2002 based on an illustration found in an out of print book, "American Truck Spotters Guide 1920-1970".  The cab was made with styrene and with brass fenders.  The model was recently reworked to photograph better.  A new  cargo box was built up with scale lumber, stained with thinned down model paints, and weathered with dry colors and chalk.  Wheels are metal castings by On-Trak, and the lanterns are by Precision Scale.  The cab and chassis was also repainted a rust color with Humbrol enamels and heavily weathered with dry colors.
