Chuck Most Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 First off, all the paint and modifications were started by another modeler. He lost interest in the project and I finished it- really about the only contributions I made (besides getting the last few bits together) were the mirrors, mud flaps, and rear bumper. I also slapped on some door handles, cab clearance lights, and fender turn signals. Still turned out pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 The cab is from R&R Resin- they call it a '56, but it is in fact a '57 Golden Jubilee Custom A-100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Nice job, Chuck. I'm guessing the color is more brown? At least on my computer it's kind of orange. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Larkin You're both right and wrong, both wrong and right! I'd call it a sort of 'brownish orange'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von Zipper Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Nice job, I like what you've done. The color looks like Root Beer to me....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 Nice job, I like what you've done. The color looks like Root Beer to me....... Yep- that new Testors color in the "One Coat" line. Not my favorite, but it does look pretty good on this truck with the cream top, wouldn't you say?

EH225M Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Hey Chuck, Great truck!! It looks fantastic. Tell me, that bug sitting in front of it, ... did that make a cameo appearance in the 'cars' movie? Right at the end when the credits were rolling??

Gluhead Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Chuck, it looks great. Do you know where the wheels and tires are from? I'd love to have a set or two of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the wheels are Modelhaus- the tires look like the old 1:32 scale AMT big rig tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bart68 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 WOW, how did I not see this one before? We need more IH kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 The thread that wouldn't die! Thanks guys! I no longer own this one. My neighbor, not a modeler but a life-long IH truck guy, now has it in his collection. Should NOT have done that... now he's hounding me to do a model of the '80 Scout II Traveler he used to own!
