Scott’s Wrecker

I took a White Western Star tractor and converted it to a Big Stick wrecker. 

I used the Western Star chasis and stretched the frame 2.5 inches to accommodate the wrecker bed and pirated Kenworth single sleeper bunk. I used Moebius wheels and tires instead of the stock spider wheels. The paint is Model Master enamel Guards Red and Light Ivory. The exhaust was used from the AMT Peterbilt wrecker kit, along with the cab running lights and air horns. The steel cable on the Big Stick wrecker is thin picture framing wire.

  1. An master class in kit bashing by our resident Big Rig guru! I really like how this one came out Saylor. I would like to pick your brain on the variations in suspension types amoung all the large truck makers. I ended up using Autocar suspension to lower my CA Peterbilt because the stock airbag quarter elliptics did NOT want to play. Is this one going to NOVA? If so I would like to perhaps caravan with you to the show, my ability to navigate in Fairfax is truly legendary (in a bad way)
