  1. That's when your Dremel comes in real handy.
  2. This is a build that I'm collecting parts for now. What would be the best/correct trailer ?
  3. Very nice, pity Revell didn't put the cartoon RR at the start of the dust trail but Keith Marks can fix that.
  4. This is cool. What kit is this based on? Are you going to get copies made ?
  5. Fantastic, Superb, marvelous, more photos PLEASE.

    Very nice. Is the Revell kit with the axle through the engine?
  7. What a great way to introduce kids to the hobby, sure gives them a creative outlet & keeps them off the video games. Keep up the great work.
  8. Ok, here's a bit more, my friend made the air cleaner for me & showed me how to use the mill to drill the holes for the fuel tank caps. I made the air tank for the trailer out of some scrap plastic rod my friend had laying around his workshop, just got to build the legs for it, the tank next to it is a resin peice i bought from the US (you can see why I remade it). The exhaust was bought from GR decals, just have to shorten the stacks. The truck frame was shortened by 65mm.
  9. Both are really nice, would like to see your railway layout to.

    Real nice, would love a 1:1 version but at around $140k down under, i don't think so.
  11. What a fantastic build, i really love these early cars.
  12. What a beauty, well done. & who needs rear vison mirrors? only need to see where you're going, not where you been!
  13. This is what i'm currently working on, AMT rig, shortened the frame, a friend taught me some lathe basic's & i machined up the fuel tanks & caps (got to drill the holes to fit the caps yet) & put on aluminum straps. The trailer is an Italeri 48 footer cut back to 40 feet. I made a mold & cast one of the rear doors then cut it to fit on the side. Made the king pin on the lathe. The 2 hole Budds are from Jamie aka 73gmc454 (Thanks). I,m trying to find wiring diagrams for truck & trailer & Aluminum wheels for the truck. The original inspiration came from Missing in Action's Bj rig (thanks). Feel free to comment, good or bad, tips useful.
  14. WOW, this is fantastic, love the fact that you got Bear sitting in the cab.
  15. Very cool, pity we don't see more old timers like this in scale.
