Quinella - Need actually $711.04 to tool that new trailer for you. Sorry you are a little short...

RMS - yeah I know - but compare that photo with the real trailer... nice huh!

Bay Crane version of the Pete is coming - supposed to be 3rd quarter.

We are working on some new stuff... hang in there!

Is there any way to buy the rear fender set from the Mack Granite? I want them for my Peterbilt.

We need a Heavy Haul Trailer for big equipment!!! I can't move my ZX870 until the appropriate trailer is built!!!

I would be willing to chip in with Craig and others for new tooling for our dream trailer, west coast or east coast I don't care just big enough to move a complete ZX870 would make me happier then a pig in $&@?

Maybe Precision Heavy Haulage livery?

Thanks again for the great trucks and new releases! I love my Rich's Towing Peterbilt and Rogers! I appreciate everything you do for the hobby! I can't wait for the Bay Crane Pete, I saw the same truck you have pictures about 2 weeks go in NH.

Yes Ken, that very nice man Wayne Day was going to produce that Cozad. I understand one fellow in Kentucky lost his butt on that investment. Wayne was a strange guy. Likeable, but hold on to your wallet. CAW


I feel bad that you think you know more about my business than I do. You have made comments before about all this money that supposedly came to me that is all news to me. I have never collected deposits for the trailer, I had no partners in the creation of the trailer,and I paid for everything out of my own pocket.

Truck Miniatures/Wayne Day............the trucks when produced in England were outstanding, later versions, not so much. The prototype of the Cozad trailer was outstanding, I do not remember who made the prototype, Wayne was looking for investors to have the Cozad trailer produced in quantity. The deal was you invested money to produce the molds and you had the privilege of being one of the first collectors to purchase one at full retail ! What a deal. Unfortunately Wayne's reputation preceded him and the project never got off the ground.


Jokes on you, I made the prototype myself. You prove that you don't know what you're talking about because there are no molds for the cozad trailer and the trucks made in england weren't assembled correctly and all had to be rebuilt by me before they could be sold. Randy, you should know better than to spread untruths about things you don't know anything about. With your job you should know better than to tell stories like that.



You all complain about how long it takes for Chuck to get models made but the models don't just fall out of trees. I'd like to see what models you've created for mass production. For what Chuck does for us we should all be kissing his butt.

Wayne Day,

First, I said I did not know who produced the prototype, so how is the joke on me?

Second, I own at least a dozen Truck Miniature tractors along with trailers, they consist of examples made in England and later models, I maintain my opinion that the example produced in England are of better quality than the later ones, for whatever reason. Please note that this is an opinion, no truth or untruth !

Not sure what my job has to do with any of this, please inform me !

Dad and I sat down with you on two (2) separate occasions, which happened to be at two (2) consecutive ConExpo Shows in Las Vegas. You approached us regarding producing the Cozad trailer in quantity, you were indeed looking for investors, we were interested, but the deal I described was indeed the details YOU told us. If any of it is not true than YOU were spreading untruths, NOT ME !

Mr. Day: My information comes from two of the most respected dealers in this hobby. One of them claimed to have lost the money on that investment. Secondly, I talked with you over the phone probably to you over 12 years ago. I bought a model from you. It took over 30 days to get it, after many e-mails and phone calls. But I did get it. As for the prototype, one of those dealers claimed to have possession of it. Perhaps I was told untruths by others. Although, given who it was, I doubt it. But my one and only dealing with you was not favorable. And you told me at that time that your health was the reason that the project never got off the ground. But rest assured, I will not speak of you again. Good luck. CAW

You sure do. Now how about a KW W900B with a West Coast lowboy, maybe a Cozad or Murray. Wink
