Heres my new Mack R I did a little customizing to this afternoon/evening. I would say this is kind of my "biggest" project so far that looks really good. I had a ol IH 9100 I used parts off to put on this one, like the stack, 5th wheel wheels and rims, and the small chrome piece by the 5th wheel, I also shortend up the frame a touch. Thanks Chris (swfarms) for your help and advice!
Thanks for looking, comments and questions welcomed.

I like seeing a refurb of old Ertl products with modern parts.
Good job!

Nice job on that Mack. I would love to see them release a new updated Mack R. I plan on doing the same to my Mack R. Put newer tires on him.
