Guest Anthony Oteri Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Excellent work. Your lowboy is going to be sweet looking with that excavator on it. I especially like the way you built your gooseneck! Anthony Welcome to the Forum as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

455 Rocket Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 There have been some Gooche repos on e-bay. You may also look for Cat Nascar decals. Maybe they'll work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anthony Oteri Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 There have been some Gooche repos on e-bay. You may also look for Cat Nascar decals. Maybe they'll work. Nascar decals would be great because they have the newer style logo. The bulldozer ones might be available from Dennis at Model Express.
