Jefbo Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I'm new to truck modeling. I built my first a few months back. I have started my next truck project. The Lindberg Dodge L-700 as a car transport for all my hemi 'cuda models and I have had very little luck with the usual on line searches. I would really like photos of the engine and bay areas but I could use anything. Thanks, jefbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICARD Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi, I` am from Germany and I have many pics of the L-700. I am not so firm with the english language, please can you tell me what do you mean with the bay area? I will send you the pics if I know what it is.

MrObsessive Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hi Marco, He's talking about the engine compartment area, or engine "bay". Of course on the L-700, the engine and surrounding parts are pretty much exposed once the cab is tilted over. I'd like some pics also.......I have an old builtup I won on eBay a few years ago, and it's begging for a restoration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Yes, any pics would be helpful for building these kits. I've never seen one of these in 1:1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICARD Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hi, Here are the pics. Let me know i`ve you want more! Look at my Dodge L700 inProgress in a few minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, any photos are a big help. The photos I desire the most however are the one that show the details, such as interior, engine, hoses & lines etc. I very much enjoyed seeing your L-700. If I came across one on the street, I suspect it would be a dead on match to your build. Because of the lack of reference material, I decided to go the custom rout. I will post the progress photos in the Model Trucks Forum. Jefbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICARD Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Hi Jeffrey, here are some photos more for you. Hope you have fun with it! Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefbo Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Hi Marco, You wrote: here are some photos more for you. Hope you have fun with it! Marco Thanks, I will put them to good use. I decided to use the 361-ci engine that came with the kit, just dress it up a little. I'll post the progress soon. I'm not familiar with the motor at all. I want to wire and run hoses and I don't have a clue to where half the stuff goes. In my search for photo on the net, the one thing I have found a lot of is other modelers asking if anyone has photos of this dodge. So if you have more photos... please post. a big THANKS!, Jefbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICARD Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Hi, more pics? OK! here I am again: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefbo Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 You the man Marco! Thanks again. Did you finish your L-700 yet? I can't wait to see it done. Jefbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICARD Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Hi Jefbo, in Moment I`am working on 4 Modeltrucks at the same Time. There are a Diamond Reo short Nose, a Peterbilt 352 Milne Daycab, a Ford Prototype Truck (very interesting because it`s like the Dodge L700) and last not least the L700. I hope I can finish these projects the next time, because I have so many new Ideas (in Moment I have ca. 150 Trucks in Scale 1:24/1:25 , 1800 in Scale 1:87, 5 in Scale 1:16 and many others in different Scales. Here in Germany there live many "Modeltruckfreaks". Happy new year Marco PS: The 2 first new pictures are canadian Fargo Trucks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
