I haven't seen this Truck of John's yet,but have seen previous models made by john CLOSE UP and you truly have to see them in the flesh.
Johns joinery in miniture is unbelievable.
He is a true craftsman. He also has the ability to draw up the model from rough drawings and pics.No big fancy workshop either,just a lot of skill.I hope John doesn't mind me posting this.
If I ever get half as good as John I would be very happy.
If you ever get a chance to view one of Johns models in the flesh,do it you will be very glad you did

Sounds like we need to organize a trip to Geelong for a viewing but it'll have to be next year as I think the boss has this year all planned out for us.....
It'd be very good to see John's & your handy work too Ross plus Elderly on the way; a road trip of sorts.

This dump truck is awesome! Hopefully soon I will build me one of these but I will have to buy the plans from Toys and Joys. I'm not good enough to do it from specs or pictures.
