Bought it from stellamodels, one of the club sponsors
Build it to go with the tank trailer,
if you have seen the movie convoy
A 1978 must-view movie for the usa truck lovers
You know why i painted it BMW diamante black.
Ok, for a fact, the real truck is a Mack Western RS700L, but
It is 'based on' , ok? ;)
In my humble opinion, it really goes well with the chrome
parts of the truck, and the chrome from the tank trailer.
The truck is build with full ball bearings
Roof spoiler painted in body colour
The bullbar to get that 'convoy' look.
A full set of '5000' GPM limited edition alloys
For the truck and tank trailer.
These are polished high-shine alloys, and do the trick with the chrome from the truck :)
Why are you doing this, Duck?
Don't know 'bout the rest of them. Me, I'm running for my life myself.
My dad always said , act like a duck.
Stay smooth on the surface, but paddle like the devil underneath.
Pigpen this here's the Rubberduck an I'm about to put the Hammer Down! ...........10-4..........

Lovely! I'm about to paint my king hauler cab black as well for same reason. BTW You need a little rubber duck mounted atop that radiator grill and 'R D Trucking' on the doors!!

now that is very very cool that colour. I'm not a great fan of the stick on spoiler and bull bars normally but they look really good on this truck. Nice job! Oh and I have a little glow in the dark duck that sits on the roof of my Aeromax

10-4 good buddy
How about a Jaguar E-type run next to it. Just don't run it into a tank on a bridge. Fantastic film and great looking model.

One cool looking truck!! I am about to do the same for the same reason (love the film). Th echrome of the tanker is a great contrast to the black truck with minilist decals it just makes it look so right. Just pray Dirty lyle dont see it you know what he thinks of truckers!!
