Missing in Action

I used .010'' thick evergreen sheet as a tab glued inside the cab,then taped the outside skin right up to the edge on the front cab section and did the same on the outside of the sleeper so when i glued the pieces together, I would simply use my finger and wipe the seam and not smear glue everywhere and be a mess!! Then when the glue dried, I would peel the tape off and have very little bodywork to do. Oh, and clamping the cab and sleeper together while it dries is also helpful!!!  Roy

Just remember, Richard Petty won 10 races in1969....In a FORD!!!! The only year he ever raced a Ford!!! I hope the Fords serve His team well!!! I miss the big STP Oval too!!!!

This is an increadible build and well worthy of wining.

Thanks Dave!!! I appreciate it!!  Roy

Awesome Largecar Kenny!!!! I love the detail work!!! Roy

Congratulations on your well deserved award. Yours is the sort of scratchbuild that has drawn me back to modelling after a few years feeling like I couldn't make anything worthwhile. Now I'm back into it, fearless and surrounded by offcuts of Evergreen! Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks for the kind compliment Kelly!!! With alot of imagination and alot of hit and miss fabrication, I was able to get this truck together!! I'm glad someone was inspired or motivated to just plain "GO FOR IT" !!!!  Roy
