Wow! That is some amazing scratch building. I can't wait to see it hooked up. What color blue is that you have used on the reefer? It does closely match the light blue I've seen in pix of Thermo Kings from the 1970s.

You did a great job on this truck. I like the weathering, and the scratch built hydraulic tank.

That's a really nice paint job.

These are some nice builds.

Outstanding!

cool

He was a memorable character. Very creative build. Nice headache rack.

This turned out great.

Yes it does seem to be a bit short out of the box.

It looks like you're making the body longer. This is going to be an interesting project.

This is the first time I've seen one of these in scale. Nice job.

This is really looking nice.Great detail work.

I think it will be a big help. Thanks again.

Your BRANCH truck shows that this the way to go with this. That swings the hood out nicely. Can you point me to who makes those hinges you used? Thanks for showing it. I love the engine details on both trucks.I think I will just cut the loops off of the front springs and go for it. I was trying to complicate it too much. If nothing else, I do have various sizes of brass tube that I could probably attach the same way you did the hinges. Thank you again, you just made my day. Now I can progress quite a bit with that solved. Well, then again, progress on this thing has been like having my truck stuck in the snow... I have to rock it back before I go forth.

You really captured the fleet look. Great detail work.
