IBEX 6x6 CRANE TRUCK
|
|
| Here is a rare
classic! I found this Ibex 6x6 crane truck sitting in a dirt lot
near Henderson, Nevada (a bedroom community south-east of Las Vegas).
I couldn't find anyone who knew anything about this truck, and by
the time I returned to examine it more in-depth a few months later,
it was gone... It looks like it was in reasonably good shape, but
I have no idea if it was running or not. |

Silver State Specialties was created in 1999 to offer quality resin
accessories, replacement parts and conversion kits, suitable for
many 1/25-scale plastic model kits. SSS specializes in accessories
and parts for plastic model pickup, SUV, 4x4, and heavy truck &
trailer kits. 1/32-scale and 1/35-scale parts and accessories
will be available in the future for model truck kits, such as the
1/32 Monogram Snap-Tite and ERTL snap-together kits, as well as
1/35-scale Revell, Italeri, AFV Club, Trumpeter, Airfix, Heller,
Tamiya, and other military model truck kits. Some of these
smaller scale model kits are quite well detailed, and a wide variety
of photo-etched, resin, and other accessories are widely available
for most of these military truck model kits. What's even more exciting
is the line of 1/24th & 1/25th-scale military model kits and
conversions we are in the early stages of developing, to nicely
compliment your ERTL,
AMT, Italeri, Revell, and other brands of truck models.
Silver State Specialties is working on resin accessories and complete
kits for G- gauge outdoor garden railway trains ("Large Scale")
in 1/24th-scale. Some patterns have been completed, and many more
are under construction. These kits and accessories will include
complete Beyer-Garratt style of locomotives and Narrow Gauge ore
hopper cars, as well as 24-inch & 30-inch gauge industrial equipment
in this same scale.
SSS also has master patterns partially completed for many 1/16-scale
model truck accessories and conversion kits, mainly for the Monogram-Revell
1/16-scale model truck kits. Some projected accessories for
these 1/16-scale kits are front drive axles, different wheels and
tires, air cleaner accessories, pusher and tag axles, oil filters
and engine accessories, and possibly different engines. Cab
& hood conversion kits remain a possibility for these monsters
as well, but are still years away from being offered as there are
more pressing projects to push forward with first. But someday
they should be available!
Thank you for your continued support!
