signguy2108 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 When the forum went down, I kinda lost interest in my models for a while. Decided this morning to pull a couple out and work on them. The petebilt is another snap kit, scratch built sleeper, bumper, long tanks, etc. I started on it about 6 months ago! Got the fenders and the "chicken lights" (vinyl cut on a plotter) on this morning. It will pull a matching Mobius reefer, (sill in the box!). Also got the power unit on the race trailer. More to come.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackinac359 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Wow! Nice. Great color combo too. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBad Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) There is still life in these snap kits yet. I like the front fenders, chunkier, yet well proportioned. Nice chrome details, good paint scheme, chicken lights, big condo, the works! Nice build! Edited September 15, 2013 by BigBad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signguy2108 Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks guys! I still have to finish the interior, engine, and some other details. The breathers are made from the clear tubes that x-acto blades come in (5-pack), wrapped in chrome vinyl. Maybe I can finish it this week!

Brinx Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Nice looking rig Larry. I think your Double Eagle conversion and colors are very nice. Your fender unit is really what catches my eye. I've never been a big fan of them, until now. I like the way incorporated it into the project, it gives the rig a nice sleek look. I think I'm going to give something like that a try. brinx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
