  1. Im not trying to hijack your build just thought you would like to my efforts so far . The roof is now held with brass box section .The doors are hinged with brass rod bent to shape , All cables removed . I made the dash righthand drive but Im not sure if the real cars where or not the rear engine cover is as far as I got .I have to tackle the finned rear window . Anyway on with your build your doing a great job so far the cables look great . i just sat and watched the story of Mr Deloian wow and I can just remember it happening as a kid. Dave
  2. Leo thanks for that but I think that I want to convert the cab myself I like the challenge
  3. Wasn't that somthing to do with Boyd coddington? Great rusted effect BTW
  4. Thanks anthony/Harvey thats great Info .Ive just googled it myself there isn't much at all .but I did find a model by somone called Sam and his pics show that there was only room for one seat and it shows how to do the doghouse too . Im just assuming that the hood is ment to be removed and the cab did not tilt . Time to get the razor saw out !!!!! Thanks again guys this hobby is just the greatest Dave
  5. I believe that this International is called a Conco whatever that meens or is there a number for it . Anyway does anybody have any pictures or dertails about this truck ? All I know is that it uses the cab and fenders of the Paystar 5000 Ive seen a few pictures in TMW and Hanks truck pictures but these are not detailed pictures . I need to know whether the same V8 is used if so what is the doghouse like in the cab . Also does the cab tilt or is the hood removeable? Any info would be great thanks in advance Dave
  6. The decals are on an opaque plastic sheet which is a little tacky ? but the decals are not tacky at all ? Im not sure my mate would want to use heat on his truck even just a little bit .Has anybody remade them as a waterslide decal ?
  7. That is just the coolest cruiser I like all the mods you have done . Thats a nice trick with the tail lights
  8. I dont know if we have any hobby shops that sell Testors and im fairly sure that none of them have ever herd of Metalizers . Im not sure you can get it in the UK ?. If anybody knows different then let me know becuse it looks fantastic on this Delorian Dave

  16. Thanks Doug I had thought that im asking for a friend he hasn't seen that sort of decal and haden't ether he said that on the back it said use decalweld is that the same stuff as micro sol ?
  17. Hi has anyone used the odd decals that come in the AMT Kenworth Aerodyne kit number 5018 . Its the blue truck with zig zag striping and the long chassis . The instrutions on the back say to use a solvent adhesive ?! . Or do the decals just rub on to the body? Please can anyone help as I dont want to ruin some realy good striping. Thanks in advance Dave
  18. Thats a realy clever idea they look very realistic well done
  19. Just thought I would have another look at your lovely big horn and I notice that there is a slite problem with your front rims it looks like the outer ring didnt stick on !?
  20. Fantastic very realistic the detail in the cab is just stunning . I also dont understand what you do with the glass but whatever it is its perfect!!!!!!! Dave
  21. That red realy suits that bulldog
  22. Alan if your RD truck comes out as good as this KW it should look great . Did you do the striping yourself or are they decals?
