    Lee Drennen’s 1/87 HO Custom Trucks.

    Here’s just some of the many 1/87 HO Custom trucks I’ve built over the years. Sadly most of all of these were sold on Sleezebay.

              Thanks Jay it’s a big challenge to work in this scale these days and one of the reasons I quit selling and the scalpers on Sleezebay that was stealing my ideas.

                    Maybe it's just me but there's something romantic about big old American trucks. I probably listen to too much Country & Western, people like Boxcar Willie!!!

                            No your absolutely right Jim being a 4th Generation trucker the romance was there when I was very young that’s all I ever known was trucks and trucking I was glad I got to ride with my dad when he had his tractor trailer I thought I was king of the hill at the age of 4 years old I’ll never forget it and I knew before that that I was going to be a trucker. Sadly that romance is almost gone with this new generation of American Truckers.

                              I also have had an early love of trucks. Likely because my Dad was a contracter & had a few. I remember my Dad tutoring me when I was about 10 on how if you can't see the trucks' mirrors he can't see you, to give him a toot to get his attention when passing, to flash lights to let him know he was past you & he could pull in safely, etc.
