Are there any more pictures of the Ted Leroy Western Stars like the one shown here on page 3 of this thread?
I'm curious about the specs on these trucks. I would like to know what kind of rear suspension they had, like all air ride or air ride/walking beam? Wheel base? I would say it has a Pro-Fab tridem log trailer since I think they owned that company.
These would make a neat 1/25th scale model. Any help would be great.

Owleater - I see that photo of a 1988 KW was taken in a burned area from the dead brush and char on on the top log. Can you pass along where they were logging when that photo was taken? My dad logged in N. Calif for a number of years, down the Klamath, Scott Valley, Tenant and McCloud area.
we log up out of Oroville

2000 KW W900B, although it has an "L" hood on it. Backing in for a load above Enumclaw WA Shortly after a wash job, thought a clean log truck would look better..... Next step is a new bumper; truck came with this one.
