USDA FNF PETE 379, KC3 LOWBOY, and OFF-ROAD OSHKOSH SET

I constructed a set of models to represent a USDA Florida National Forest (USDA FNF) back country heavy duty fire fighting set. Hauler is a DCP Peterbilt 379 with extra drive axle, winch, and custom & aftermarket parts. The trailer is a KC3 Lowboy that has been altered and repainted. Load is a Code 3 Oshkosh that has been significantly kitbashed to represent an Off-Road Unit. Models were painted with Krylon Kiwi, and decaled with Roadblocker Brushfire/Forestery set. Models are built to 1/64th scale.

Nice job Chuck. You obviously have too much time on your hands. Only problem is that the USFS in not that progressive. They still fight fires the same way the did 50 years ago.
