Nice work so far. I'll be closely following your work on this.

Hmm...I bought one at HL yesterday and it was $26.99. After 40%, it was $17.61. Still a great deal regardless, and even $26.99 is a steal!

I just bought one at HL. After using the 40% coupon, I paid $17 and change for it. Even the retail price was cheap. It doesn't get better than that.

Agreed, I have had no luck with PMs lately. We used to talk a lot before but he hasn't answered back in a while.

Hi Michael. I have the hubcaps, only need the one measly wheel lol. Unfortunately, I don't have any available that I'm willing to part with. I will try to figure out where I originally got them from and see if they are still available for you.

In need of just one of the wheels from this kit. For whatever reason, my kit is missing one. Thank you.

Does anybody have a website or email? BCS doesn't have any campers listed, and I've never seen any listed on his ebay page.

I was tempted to build my own, but my scratch building skills just aren't there yet. I That's why I was hoping somebody would be willing to take a custom order for one (or two).

Does anybody out there make custom camper shells in 1/24-1/25 scale? I was looking at getting something like this made.

Looking for the cab from this kit. I've had the kit for years and just opened it up for the first time. Unfortunately, the cab is crushed. If anybody has an extra, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you all for the compliments.

Here's my completed 2018 Border Patrol F-150. I prefer to work with plastic over diecast, but I couldn't pass the subject matter up. I used the Motormax 2019 F-150 Lariat truck for this project. This truck is officially labeled as a 1/27 model, but I would put it closer to 1/25-1/26. I left the white paint as is but painted the front and rear bumpers, grill, mirrors, c pillars, and door handles a flat black to de-trim it to a base XL model. I also blacked out the rear windows as a Border Patrol truck would have a heavy window tint. I used the wheels and tires off of the most recent reissue of the Revell Ford Expedition Police SUV. Even though they are horribly anachronistic for the Revell Expedition, they are perfect and accurate for this truck. I also painted the interior to match an XL truck and added a radio console, mic, and center divider from a Lindberg Crown Victoria. The duffel bag came from the Revell Expedition. The light bar is from the Lindberg Dodge Charger police car kit. Decals are from Billbozo. I added the last two pictures for reference.

Very clean build!

You nailed this one! I plan on doing a similar one myself. Again, happy to see that the decals I sold to you went to a good project.

Thanks Mike, but I was trying to see if I could get some for trade. I will check it out though.
