I used an AMT '78 Li'l Red Truck kit, and bashed it with a Midnight Cowboy wrecker kit to come up with this: The 440 came from a '49 Mercury kit, and I scratchbuilt the exhaust from some soft, pliable steel wire I had laying around. The lettering is dry transfer from the local scale train shop. Comments and questions welcome. Thanks for looking!

Looks great!
I used that wrecker to do up a Cooter’s tow truck.

Looks pretty good for a "smoothly" built custom! Steve .
