Ive been trying to get one of the original Sword Mechanics Truck at a good price for awhile, but alas it is not so easy. So I decided to mix some models to get a nice service truck representation. I bought the JerrDan and used a Norscot I already had. I had to shorten the frame to fit the bed. I added the diamond plate, welder and extinguisher. I added the hook to the crane as well, and got some decals to put on. Overall I like the way it turned out.

Nice work on the custom, truck looks good! I feel your pain with having to overpay for the Sword Peterbilt and First Gear International service trucks. Wish Sword and First Gear would reissue them.
