tbill Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 looking good Ken, I may have to get another log trailer and build one of these to go with my R model logger.
Mopar - D Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Ken you have this Mack looking good. Where do you get the information on detailing your engines I'm interested in adding more details to my engine builds. Thanks

tbill Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Ken, I can't help but wonder if you yourself are possibly 1/25th scale, and just run around that garage in the background all day working your tail off building trucks
