The 'Wrecker'

This is an old man F90 Commander Kit from Italeri which I bought on eBay for about 1.5 years ago. Some parts were missing, especially the instructions but got help from a member of the 1/24th forum, who kindly scanned another version of the F90, which have similar building form.

I decided to deviate from the kit's original finish kit, as usual, and do something different. This building, I called the "Wrecker". This is a private owner's modification that resulted in what you see now. A one man's mod to adapt a truck to suit his day-to-day's chores to be able to to let the truck work for him. As this truck as gone through some real hardship and still has a lot more to give. At least that is the story behind this build.

I still have little left to add such as, adding horns, the owner's logo (sign) and a little more 'weathering'.

Hope you like the results.
