That's Nifty!

Once upon a time I was considering something like your cool winter rig with a slice of eraser block hidden behind the plow....and now I am again!

saltalot1,

That is Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Tires, front plow and rear salt container with the salt flinger also...Yeah! :woohoo:

First words out of Fletchers mouth were "That is Cool" then he said, "Can we make one?"

This is a great idea and just can't stop looking at your very cool truck! Thanks for sharing this one with us and "Keep on Salting" saltalot1. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Bob...yes we can...zilla

Thats a really cool truck!! Would be a great runner in a novice race. Is that a snow truck?

That big rig full of salt reminds me that it's a good thing resin doesn't rust. Otherwise, you'd have my drop-a-piece-of-body every time the door closed '65 Karman Ghia. My friends would find turquoise chunks of bondo with trace amounts of car body metal and say "Hey Russ, you parked over here the other day". It was OK for a 9 year-old car that cost me $300 but it would be a bummer for a slot car collection. :drunk: :hat: :freak: :dude:

Nice truck, love the tires. You are going to have to get an adapter for the plow to get the sides of the road where somebody sneezed that green stuff! jk

Looks like something I woulda done. :D Nice work.

What I'm really interested in is the orange car behind it in the right lane. THAT looks like a good project.

Satellite1, Like your snow truck & great idea for the tires :thumbsup: and is that an orange Edsel model behind it?
Yesterday, I was just thinking of posting my snow plow after driving through a rain storm that turned to wet snow the futher North you went.
Hope you do not mind me posting my version. Really liked the detail of the salt apparatus and that the spreader moves up & down.

Installed a blue light which indicates a snow plow in my area!

Was thinking of building a small Winter layout with white track for a Christmas project!
Now, if I can only find one of the old Ski-doo sets. Probably, easier to spray the track - white. ...RL

It`s an edsel from a plastic 4 car kit from 50/60`s made by roco. The other 3 cars are in scale for slot but the edsel is too big.
