Hayes HD Dump Truck - Take II

[RCP57]

The idea of this project has been in the works for a couple of years but I finally got the go ahead on it a few months back. There are two cabs being built at the moment but one is going to Lou and he will finish it as he sees fit. The other cab is where my first major customer build starts. I will be building a scale(ish) model of a 1959 Hayes HD that was bought new buy my customers father. The truck was replaced and sold off many, many years ago and was long thought to be lost. It was stumbled upon a few years ago and the original family bought it back. It is now being restored to original condition as a tribute truck to my customers father. I hope to do the mini version justice so that it can sit proudly next to it's 1:1 brother!

Here's what I built today...









Thanks for looking.
