This model from Chester Fesmire was built using an out of production Ivers Engineering 1953 REO Comet cab and chassis cast metal kit. The bed and boom on this old and abused junk yard mule is scratchbuilt. There are various gasket and wrench details on the bed from Vector Cut (www.vectorcut.com) a company producing laser cut details on reinforced paper card stock of very intricate pieces for our scale. The gears on the winch and boom sheave are also from Vector Cut.
