  • In this video on How to Modify HO Scale Vehicle - I'm going to dive into an HO Scale Utility Truck and how I did it. I used several items I had on hand, some extra styrene, wire, and anything else I had that I thought would work. This was a super fun and pretty easy (not quick-quick) but quick enough. The build was not hard at all. If you do give it a try - just take your time and remember to have fun. I got the vehicle from my local train store - Blue Ox Trains - and they always have some super cool, but cheap vehicles. I grabbed a couple of these a while back and recently modified them out. Modifying Scale Model Cars (HO scale for this one) adds that little bit of extra realism to your layout or diorama!

    Very cool! A lot of modelers overlook vehicle weathering.

      Thanks bro - and yeah I totally agree. It may take a little time to do and I get it, but it's such a nice touch when it's done.

    Cool video man. I think I would try making that cage/rack out of styrene as well after watching you mess with it, looked like a challenge working with those small metal pieces. I like how it looked at the end, really unique vehicle!

    • @ProScaleModels

      Hey bro - thanks and man I did try one with styrene. I had the wrong sizes for the rack so I scraped it lol - If I can get the right size I'll do another.
