I'm going to post some of my builds that I've done for reference. My first, The RDFC Highbinder.
Autocar C-100. Color scheme based on a truck seen in PA.
Rubbish truck made from a International cabover and Sheepscot Garwood rubbish body. Some how Doug Foscale ended up with it.
International R-200 with 6100 gal. tank trailer. Now on Bob Seckler's layout
This is the truck I did for the video. Brian Bollinger ended up with this and a copy went to Tom Langford.
Autocar C-90 coal truck with Sheepscot coal body. This is also on Tom's layout.
IH KB-11 flatbed. This was given to Jeff Grove and hasn't seen the light of day since ;D
Another coal truck built for Bob Seckler using the LJ Mack. Sorry for the poor photo.
Another poor photo of a Autocar U-90 cabover with a Alloy forms delivery body. Jimmy D bought this and others from me and they were probably found with the layout dismantling.
This a kitbash I did with the R-200 nose and the RDFC cab. I did this trying to persuade George to do this as a kit.. He didn't bite! :-\
Even though this is a Walther's (Magnuson) cab, I used Sheepscot wheels and the trailer is a Sheepscot 24' trailer. This and the trailer behind it were built for Brian Bollinger for a display model.
Another C-90 that actually made it to the topside of the Pennsy. The body was a very small run made by George before being scrapped.
I have more but I need to find the photos.
This is a copy of a page from the 1/87th group. Half the trucks in the photo are one's that I sold to Jimmy.
Dan...
On today's chat page is a photo of a 36-37 Chevrolet milk truck. Sort of like the one you show above.
Thanx
Bob

Bob, I posted that photo, I have a similar resin tank I could mount on a Sylvan 37 Chevy. Thanks for looking.
Andy, Dustin, and Tom, Thanks for the comments!
Dan,
Great job on all of the trucks!!!
Found a couple more. Autocar U-90 Heavy tractor
Autocar C-100 with an Alloy Forms wrecker body.
Dan,
Once again, absolutely beautiful modeling.
Wow! I'm (almost) left speechless. :o
Every time I visit Tom's layout your vehicle builds always catch my eye. It doesn't matter how many times I've seen them before. I still stop and eye each one up. :D

I always thought they were real and that Tom had found a way to shrink them to HO.

Vehicles and people well done always enhance a scene.
