WIP [WIP Free] 1912-1932 Hank Truck Company Model 8

That's actually the front axle

 

I was sent the link to this thread by a friend, I like the style of the truck, and it ever so happens i know a decent bit of jbeam, I've made a few standalone cars myself (none of which are released... Yet) if you want to add me on discord I can show you what all mods I've made, and we can discuss this further.

 

My discord user is therealalicewhite add me

odd question. is there a telegram channel? if not, would you make one to post updates? i deleted discord permanently and im not going back, but im excited to see some more photos of this.

 

just asking but, will there be any military/militia variants because a truck like this? I feel it would fit as some kind of military transporter/troop carrier during the 20s/30s.

 

Yes. There will be some ww1 variants.

No telegram, but I post the bigger updates here

 

dang. please do consider it at some point, atleast for future projects.

 

i cant stop refreshing the page because i have nothing else to do (this is definitely not healthy)

 

Textures by myself, Tadfafty. Feel free to use this battery logo texture for your own projects, everybody.

 

well now i feel obligated to keep checking (really cool tho and i am L O V I N G this mod so far)

 

Thank you! Haha. I'm glad it's finally getting back on track, thanks to sr

 

i have another question btw, im not super knowledgeable about these prewar trucks but will there be a possible school bus variant (maybe addon at a later date?) using the hank chassis?

 

There is a charabanc (roofless bus) that is partially modelled, and it'll have a roofed variant too

 

there is another question i have but more focused on the Hank brand itself. will there be a light duty/non commercial truck/pickup in the same era as the model 8?

 

The Hank Model 8 is actually set to be their weakest truck. Hank strictly makes commercial vehicles in our lore.

 

damn, well then i guess we have to see what those bigger models are later on lol
--- Post updated ---
heres another question about Hank, did they survive the great depression/ww2 and if so, when did they go bankrupt and fail? if they even failed at all.

 

This truck reminds me of a story I know. It was about an old truck from Lake Lure, NC (North Carolina, U.S.)
