  1. Thanks, Dan, Alain....I appreciate the vote of confidence, Dan, but I've got a 9 car hauler planned for one of my AMT Transtar 4300 kits....I think I'd have to cut too many of my favorite features off of the Volvo to make something like that....BUT....I hear ya.....Just waiting for it to warm up a little more, so I can really get busy.....
  2. Great resto job, Man...Good looking truck.....Figures make it come to life, too....Awesome...
  3. Man, that blue one is SICK !!!! I like that Pete, too, but that KW ROCKS pretty hard!!!!
  4. Can't with the paint job, but I can recommend the point at which the stretch ought to be.....If you cut here, you won't move any mounting points for the fairings, exhaust, or anthing else, for that matter....Made it easy for me, anyway.... And add a little arch to the frame to compensate for the extra length....You can't really see it, but there is a little bit of an arch to the finished product....
  5. Thanks, Guys....I really like how orange looks on big rigs......My fleet is almost done, though, I think .....I'm thinking of going with either a scratch built race car hauler with interior, this time OR a scratch built 7 car hauler....Still not sure on that, yet....I have to finish with the truck, first....More updates to come....
  6. Oh, that's just beautiful.....Very nice work to bring this to life.....Excellent....
  7. Outstanding, Man....Looks great....Just a great build....
  8. I thought about the same thing about those decals, C.....I said to myself.....Self......"Why haven't I ever used these??"..... Well, I got some paint slapped on.....Had to get it done before it rains, tomorrow.....We have a slight chance, but in Houston, that could be ANYWHERE.....
  9. Finally figured out what I'm gonna build, next.....I'm going after this.... Using this, of course......Hard to believe all these parts yield only a curbside model.....Still, though....It's one of my favorites.....
  10. Looking good, Man....Looking good.....
  11. Definitely, gonna be a cool looking setup....Great work on the engine.....
  12. I really dig those tankers......I built one of the other ones a long time ago, and it came out pretty cool.....Both are just like the box art....Thought about lengthening one, myself, to see if I could set it behind an American truck....Still don't know how I'd go about it, though.....
  13. The only thing that is readily available, that I know of are the 1/32 Newray models you can get from various truck stops all over.....I use them for my race rigs.....But, even then, they're not the greatest.....The tires are not hollowed out, at least.....Just buy one and see.....Don't know if they'll fit over the rims that come with the Revell 1/32 kits, though.....Worth a try, though....
  14. Awesome work, Man.....Love to see the old stuff....Back when you could get a big rig for $5.....Wow....Great job....
  15. One good looking ride you got there, Man...One good looking ride.....All the right touches.....Great job on opening the door....
  16. That looks pretty cool on that old Pete.....Nice....
  17. Excellent mods....This really looks good, Man...Really like the bumper work....
  18. Wow....Working outriggers and everything....Didn't expect that....That makes it worth the money, for sure....
  19. Nice work....I remember seeing those, somewhere.....Good stuff....I like that loader bucket, as well....Gives me an idea....
  20. Saw this one in a parking lot down the street....
  21. Oh, that's just too awesome....Can't wait....That bed is AWESOME....Never seen bed detail like that.....Looks amazing.....I see a work truck coming on.....Gotta get my hands on one of these....
  22. I gotta say....That looks pretty darn good.....I like the tires and rims and the scratch work is impeccable....That K&N filter is a nice touch.....Looks authentic......Great color choice and very nice work combining kits.....Excellent job, Man....
  23. Wonderful job....This is a great looking truck and and a great idea.....
  24. Great looking Diamond Reo....Everything looks just right.....I really like that old Mopar.....Orange looks AWESOME on it....Nice job....
  25. Well, not really, Man....There's only a couple of car haulers on here I've seen.....Let me see if I can find links to those that have....Give me a little bit..... http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=94517 http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=79036 http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=87536 http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=64379 http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=61913 http://rustycab.proboards.com/thread/9736/car-trailer http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=94967 http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=96472 Now, get a load of these guys.....I hope this will help you, Buddy....
