Hi everyone, I have been posting progress photos of this build on the other truck forum, but wanted to show the completed article here in case people have not had a chance to see it, if you have, then here it is again Angel

This is my attempt at a Leyland Terrier, the lorry is entirely scratchbuilt, with the exception of the wheels, differential and seats in the cab, I used to travel in these when I first started my career in the railway back in the 80's:

The completed article:

And how it all started from humble plasticard:


Hope you like it.

cheers

Ian
