wow Joe, I just realized that(your inspiration model) looks like the same truck my grandfather had in his fleet of waste oil trucks he used to oil dirtroads with when I was a kid, 30-someyrs ago!! They were a midnight blue with white lettering "Carter Waste Oil and Road Services". Cant believe that flash back was so vivid!! Good work buddy!! |
