kilrathy10 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) Well, Guys....I got another 579 from New Ray reworked, and I made a fleet version.....I'm really liking this offering....So many possibilities.....I took a Moebius 53'er and set it on the back, and this is how it came out.....

Tesla Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Looks mighty fine JT! Not sure if anyone produces Schneider decals, but it would be a great choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What scale is it and where can one get it and for what price? Helmut.....This baby is 1/24 scale and is made by New Ray....In China, too....I get mine from 3000toys.com for about $50, but you should be able to find it over there,,,,Maybe for cheaper, even.....But No, it doesn't come in the fabulous color of orange .....Just blue or black.....

Dirtracer22 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Is it curbside or have you put a motor in it? I saw Tim is busy with some of these too. They look great. Shame nobody will make us an outright new kit to build huh. You made it look beautiful as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Buddy....Naaa....This one is a total curbside.....Although, I plan on using an old Italeri chassis as a donor, someday.....Tim is "The Man" when it comes to this conversion.....I'm always checking his fotki page.....

purepmd Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Another knockout. JT. In it's own right, as cool as the first. Just a quick aside about the Italeri chassis. I have got mine all cut up, the sleeper, cab, hood, and bumper separated, and the 377 frame looks very close. Once you cut out the screw stanchions, from under the hood, it can be hinged pretty easily. A firewall can be fabbed with a little sheet stock, and TA-DA. You really did start a sales boom for New Ray with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostas Parchas Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Excellent build JT, I love it and the 53'' trailer found its place hooked on this one.I wish I could buy a few New Ray Peterbilts but there is no delivery support for Greece from US.Kostas.

Thanks Buddy.....Yeah....I have quite a few decals, and I was just going to wait till I figured out what logos to go with and do it all at the same time.....I want to do a Schneider setup with this one, but we'll see what I can find.....
