CDF MACK TWIN STEER & LOWBOY SET

I've started the hauler for my California Division of Forestry Hauler/Lowboy/Tracked Brush Unit set.

The hauler is a Solido Mack R cab on a twin steer platform, with quint drive. I may add a recovery crane to hauler.

The lowboy is a DJ Harrison unit built from his kit. The load will be a Titan tracked unit with a 8K tank.
Photos to follow when construction progresses.

The CDF Mack R Twin Steer is starting to come together. Nice to build a truck other than Gren/White of Kiwi for a change. I'll have to decide on the degree of detail, but a crane is a definate possibility.
