M2 and Hallmark
Finally finished up a couple of models that have been on my work bench far too long. The Chevy C60 is an M2 cab with a Hallmark Ornaments's John Bean high pressure pumper. I used the wheels and plastic tires from the Hallmark, because I liked the looks of them. The roof beacon on both models, is one of the rear beacons from a Corgi Seagrave. Looks good on a 1:64 scale model. The rescue is the Hallmark pumper, but I modified the pumper body and enclosed it to look like a Reading rescue body. I made the side and rear lights out of clear plastic and a hole punch. Added a ladder from a Code 3. I may stick some extinguishers on the running boards of both models. The engine needs some hose and decals yet.

Re: M2 and Hallmark
Beautiful work. How do you attach the cab to the body??

Re: M2 and Hallmark
Most of the time, I run a small nut and bolt through the back of the cab, in to the pumper body. I run the head of the bolt in from the cab, that way the end of the bolt can stick out farther to allow access to the nut. And occasionally, once I get it all aligned, I glue a piece of styrene to the back of the cab, and then glue the body to the styrene.
