I use to sell them but not sure if these will be for sale or not yet. Maybe once all four of them are completed . Yes, that is me quite a few years ago when I first started building models. Sorry No other links at this time.

Todays pics show the parts for both tailgates now cut out, bent and welded in place. Also I made the support brackets to hang the tailgates. Today is the first day I attached both boxes to the frames and wheel assemblies. I bent and drilled some brackets and used 5/16" pins for the pivot points. I still have to build some lift cylinders for displaying the boxes in the raised position. That is a pic of me next to the old IH 350 PayHauler. I was in Grand Haven , Michigan and got to run some old machines for a afternoon. Next week I will get going on bending the frame for that truck model. That will just have a dump box on the back.
Now we have 4 or 5" of snow on the ground and will have to plow tomorrow . I been holding off hoping it would melt and not have any snow piles yet in the yard.

Nice job, as always. :thumbsup:

That is truly amazing! I cannot express how really impressed I am. Could you please post some more detailed pics, including maybe another person in the picture to get a real perspective? I'm guessing it's about a 1/4 model?
