Ford N-800 Truck Tractor & 40' Van Trailer - By Tom Matty


Tom Matty built this well worn Ford N-800 tractor trailer. The cab comes from an old Matchbox model tow truck mounted on an Atlas Ford LNT-9000 frame. The wheels, mirrors, horns, and exhaust stacks are from Alloy Forms. The trailer is an old Athearn model upgraded with Alloy Forms wheels and mud flaps. The trucker purchased the trailer “second hand” from Safeway foods and simply painted out the former owner’s markings.
