SCRATCH BUILDING THE AUTOCAR U8144T SEMI TRACTOR (3 Viewers)

Follow this thread for a step-by-step guide to scratch-building the Autocar 8144T Semi Tractor. Using 1/35 scale models as templates, I worked with balsa wood, discarded plastic model parts, and leftover pieces from a diecast 1/24 scale Mack truck previously used to create the scratch-built Ward Le France Wrecker. Photos are some reference photos I am using. The final cut will be a soft top rather than a hard top. Model is about 50 % complete
