  2. Thanks guys for all the comments . Nothing to report this month been out of town for work the last 2 weeks . Hopefully i can get bench time this weekend .
  3. Looks great Tom , I like the stacked trailer ideal . very cool
  4. Thanks guys for the comments . Well 3rd time's a charm I think I'm happy with the sleeper now, I took about another 1/16 off the top .I mocked it up with a stack and it's setting on the wheels now.
  5. Thanks guys for the comments . Steve thank you for the information . Tom I did take 3/16 off the top section , I think it still might a little high. (new pictures below) Oh yeah those green eyed girls will get you in trouble . LOL Ray those picture's help a lot , do you have any pictures showing the brackets on the back of the sleeper that the air foil attaches too? Hey Clayton thats a good tip Ill keep it in mind ,I got in a big hurry and glue everything together already , but looking at it I think its still too tall . Small update I did cut the upper section down ,it looks better but like I side above I think its still a little tall . what do you guys think? Im going to try using decal rivets never used them before .
  6. You right Scott , I learn't the hard way building the cabs , like you I found it much easier to build the cab first then put the interior in . Did get a little bit done , I couldn't save the frame rail luckily I had several laying around . also mocked up the taller sleeper . I need a little help from you guys , is the upper part of the sleeper too tall ? I kinda think it is what's your guys opinion ? I also got the decals for it today .
  7. I’ll be following this build , I got the daycab version for Christmas .
  8. This is what I'm building for B.R.B.O. Pretty much box stock other than the sleeper going to do a taller sleeper .
  9. I'll give another try this year , I failed big time in 2017 B.R.B.O . I would like to add this to the 2019 build off. I picked this up cheap at an swap meet , the frame is in bad shape ( broken and glue bomb ) the cab , hood , and sleeper are tape together .
  10. Hello All, I don't build to many car models mostly trucks , I'm going to try to build a model of an Nova SS that I had , I'm looking for a good set of Rally wheels like one in the picture. any help would greatly appreciated . thank you

  13. HI All, The GMC Coca Cola daycab is done , just have to add the turn singles and CB antenna. Thanks for looking .
  14. Thank you Brenden , This one is done moved to under glass.
  15. Thanks Brenden , I had this kit for a while myself, I cut the cab down , then shortened the frame to make it a single axle then I lost interest in it so I packed it away for quite a few years , then I seen a picture of an old Coca- Cola Chevy Titan about the same time the Coke Peterbilt came , so I decided to dig this back out and give a new life . I'm hoping to get it finished this weekend .
  16. Brenden actually I got the lights from Auslowe , they are very nice . sorry for the slow reply work is crazy .
