Superb job!

Very nice!

Amazing attention to detail! Spectacular work as always!

The wheels look great! Cant wait to see the end product!

No offense taken Alain. My model group did a community build where we all built something from our birth year. I was born in 1988, and the newest truck i had was the paystar. Ibdid some research and i found trucks that were listed as 1988 year models and they looked like the model. I know some of them had chrome grills, but others did not, here is a link to one of the trucks i found listed as a 1988. This site could be wrong, but i found several like it. https://www.publiquip.com/photo/-33148655.jpg

Thanks Brian!

Thanks guys!

Yes, as Kenny said, the weathering is spot on. I have to try the chipping method at some point.

Lookin good Terry! I agree with the front tires, i think Italeri should sell those super singles like they do their other tires.

Gotta love the Outback trucks! Im diggin that brick hauler.....done plenty of that myself!

Thanks guys, i tried to sign up before i posted this topic but it said the registry was closed at the moment.....i guess i need to try again!

The cab color looks great, i like yhe company logo too!

thanks man! The chain binders are working chain binders from kfs, i snagged em off ebay real cheap. They're not too hard to assemble either.

thanks guys! Dave, use all the references ya want!

Thanks fellas! Clayton- my next project will be the first time i start something but probably wont finish till later....it also wont be in the big rig section! Terry- thanks for the complements, i wish i redid the headache rack, i like the design, but theres some imperfections i should have addressed, but theres always a next time! Brian- thanks man, my favorite parts of the truck are the vent windowswindows and of course paying homage to good ol NC with the front plates!

Under glass!

Ok, here she is, the only thing i have left to add is door decals. I still dont have photoshop, nor have i decided on a company logo. Anyway, here it is!

Yeah, thats the ticket! Thats too cool, i feel bad for those poor old Macks just stuck behind the glass though......

Im not seein it either...maybe because im usin my phone?

oh come on mman! You have the skill! Just try different methods, ive only been building seriously and weathering for 2 years. I have faith in ya! Seriously, show trucks are cool too its whatever inspires you that helps you be a better builder!

There are some pictures i want to use from the David Faust collection, but i cant email him and i can't sign up on the site to ask in the forum sectionsection how to get in touch with him......any suggestions?

Gator, i think you should go with the 100 gallon revell tanks, at least i think they are 100 gallon....the stock ones look too old forfor the year of the truck in my opinion. Lookin good though, i like the mesh and the headache rack!

Thanks Dave! Thanks Alain!

Lookin good Brian!

Absolutely magnificent as always!
