How about a scale vehicle thread

New flatbed

I bought an 11 dolar boley flatbed at hobby shop and painted it tonight, it is suposed to look brand new. It was just purchased by my construction company, (work in progress) and will be contracted out on occasion along with one of my semis to the local lumber company, at which the photographs were taken. It was red.

So, I thought I would share some of the stuff I got for my christmas gifts. I asked for these things so I could do a construction company rental yard for heavy construction. The detail is great. The equipment is all Norscot with the exception of one or two. They were all on sale and the price couldnt be beat! :mrgreen:

The semi you see I purchased a while ago from here:
Sodders Enterprises
Great person do to business with. He produces the things by him self and his business seems to have gone through the roof! Good for him. The product and the quilaity of it is great!

Nice set Combat. :thumb: I would really like to get a backhoe like that, but I do N scale and they are a bit harder to find at a reasonable price. :-(

 

[COMBAT]

Right you are... N scale just doesnt have the stuff HO does.

Looks good guys! I'm always looking back on these dreaming of the day I can start. :lol: Maybe I should sell the pool table, use that room & money to start. Hmmm.. I just don't know.

Went to the Train Show in San Diego this weekend and picked up four new rigs. The guy was selling them for $4.00 ea or 3 of them for $10.00. He only had 4 left so I asked him what about 4 for $12.00 and he said okay so I got 4 of them for $12.00

I might leave them as is or maybe re-paint them for a diffrent company, not sure yet. heres some pics of them tho
