Ford F-600 Crew Cab Stakebed Truck - By Fritz Dahlin


Fritz Dahlin built this crew cab Ford F-600 by splicing two Lindberg Ford F-600 moving van cabs. The roof is sheet styrene with a frame from an Athearn C cab; it was stretched to avoid moving the rear axle. The wheels, tires and bed (which was shortened) are from the same Athearn Ford C cab model. The interior uses the Lindberg seats and steering wheel on a scratchbuilt floor and dash. Mirrors from A-Line and decals from Rail Graphics, Microscale (license plates), and Pen Bay (mud flaps). It is painted for Fritz's railroad's MOW forces.
