thom hoos Posted June 5, 2012 Author Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) The best thing 'bout custom modeling is there's no rules, no right or wrong just do as you please.These trucks are a prime example of creative imaginations as well as the ablity to think outside the box.Way to go guy keep up the great work.

Platerpants Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 that lonestar looks awesome great color. Are the fenders scratch built or off something else?

TUFF TIN Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Mike, Cool glider ! Tim When I first built the glider, many modelers had no idea what it was. I came from the Northwest and logging is my roots and we built up several gliders. Even Gordon Fast Frieght built a couple of walk-in KW sleepers in 1976.
