This one looks old and I've never seen one like it. Albeit I was 'away' from building from the early 70's 'til early this spring. It looks like something from the 70's? Possibly from a truck crane? Where in the world did you find it?

[phoneguy]

it's just something from the parts box. I had a frame and the cab from the payhauler laying around so I decided to give it a shot.

I'll be adding a dump body from the Paystar kit, here's a Freightliner for reference.............



here's a mixer for someone (like Paul or Dan) to try.....


or maybe a logger....


Who knows--I may paint it

I think STS used to sell a KW CBE, it was an interesting looking cab with a sleeper pod lying behind the engine.

Good luck with the build, it will be interesting to see once finished (if you decide not to do the dumper Tadano make some interesting CBE truck cranes, check out the link below,

I love the photo of the cement trucks sitting in the snow! Are they still working or left just to rot? but I would not have liked to drive one!!
You should do a model of one of those, complete with rust and snow.

I don't know if they're running or not, I found them on the web. I have one mixer left and it may find it's way to the back of a DM600.
