Anything bigger than a pickup truck/ No monster trucks(has to perform some sort of task)

Can be military or civilian

Dio- Is builders choice

Aftermarket if you can find it use it! I have found one site that sells quite a few bits and bobs for semi trucks, if you know of any others www.ppvintagekits.com

Articulated or Non doesnt matter(box van, rigid doesnt matter)

Hi EricM,

There is some confusion here so I just wanted to ask straight up.

Could you please let me know if either or both of the below two models eligible?

The Airfix 1/48 Bedford MWD and the Airfix 1/48 Albion 3 Point fueler

I was kind of entertaining this idea because I build drag race models. The only thing it hauls is ass!

http://www.modelroundup.com/mobile/Prod ... AMT-R2-930

Still going to buy one anyway!
