Outstanding job, Man.....Very nice work....Outstanding tip....I've never heard of that either....

This looks great, Man....I like this one.....Very nice work....At 1/10 scale there had to be a lot of work involved with scratching this out....Very nice...

Man, she's a beauty....Paint is excellent and just looks great in general....Nice work....

Nice looking rig, Man....I'm with everyone else....Would love to some more pics, Man....

Nice work....Way to make use of that stripe decal.....Nice paintwork, from what I can see, anyway....This is a nice truck....I'd love to see some better pictures of it.....

I really like that tag along....I know I've seen that somewhere....I gotta grab one of those.....Great work on the truck, too, Chris....

Awwww, Man....Why'd you shorten the frame???? Just kidding....I like to stretch frames, for some reason....I haven't found a reason to shorten a frame, yet....Not that I'm looking for one....This one is gonna look good.....You've gotten yourself a couple of highly sought after kits in the Big Rig modeling world....I wish you well on this one....Excellent work, so far....I like the red frame....And just like in fence building, if it looks right it IS right.....I do a lot of eyeballing in my work, as well....Makes things go a lot faster, too.....And the Lego box for glue bottles is an AWESOME tip.....I don't know why I never thought of it.....Wow!!!!!

Now that's what I'm talking about....I absolutely love the stretch....Cab and chassis.....Great mods on this one....I know the next one of these I build will have the front axle mod, as well.....I was wondering what you were gonna follow that awesome 379 with.....Excellent work, so far....Maybe YOUR cab will sit level.... :D

You oughta be able to get up that hill pretty quick with this thing....Very nice...

Cool, Robert....I'm glad there is a reason for the short frame, at least.....I was beginning to wonder.....You can't even put a headache rack behind one like that, though.....I guess it's an overall weight thing......Can't see any other reason for it..... And thanks, Chris....I appreciate that.....

To be honest, Kostas, this isn't one of my best efforts at this type of paint job .....I needed to turn it upside down during the paint process, but I didn't secure the cab correctly...Unable to do this, gravity pulled more orange into the separation line than I would have liked.....Resulting in the current color separation.....Unfortunately, you gotta stop applying paint at some point to avoid drips and runs, so I left it that way.....I don't know how many paint jobs I've screwed up trying to make them "just a little bit better" ...It actually looks much better with the roof fairing in place, though..... But, I agree with you on your assessment..... And, Tom.....Lol....Don't worry....I put quite a bit of time in on it, today....Things look good....Stuff is going together as well as the Lonestar.....I really like these Moebius offerings, Man.....Can't wait to get back to it, tomorrow.....

Looking good, Man.....As always, looking good.....

You know what, Tom....I already have the trailer built....But I'll have to save that for last....

Looks great, Man....Nice work on this one along with the trailer....Looks awesome....I like the black tanks, too....

Good Gravy, Holmes.....This thing is just, outright, amazing.....You've got some skills, Man.....You've got some skills....

Thanks, Don, but I don't use air brushes for this effect....I just use paint that has the directional nozzles like Duplicolor....Krylon has a line of paint that has these and it makes it very east to do.....You can do it with any spray paint, but it's harder.....I used a regular nozzle on the orange paint on my Lonestar.....Man, that was a task....But it came out good, though....

Nice work, already....That's really gonna look good.....

Got it painted and ready to go.....I'm really diggin' these kits....It's much easier to put together than the Lonestar....Partly because of the improved instruction sheet, but mostly because of the experience gained by building the afore mentioned kit....I've had no problems up to this point..... :D

Oh, Man...That is cool, Marshall...That would be a really cool project in itself......That's the other thing I need to do....You just reminded me, Man.....Thanks.....I have to make those blind spot mirrors.....Many of these trucks have those, and I want them for my truck.....

That is probably the coolest thing I've ever seen....Very nice work....

Wow, that's amazing....Poor old truck.....Makes me remember that old movie quote....."My dad's got an AWESOME set of tools....I can fix it"... Showing my age a bit, but some of y'all know which one I'm talking about.....Glad everyone's ok, though....Oh, and the model looks pretty cool, too....You did good....It seems like every time I buy a new vehicle, I get something that isn't produced by a model company....

I figured out what he was talking about on the front cab mounts....Nothing major.....The slots for the alignment pins are pretty small in comparison....Something we've all been doing for years....Just snip the tabs off or wallow out the slots....Very easy fix, Adam.....

Fascinating....This is one heck of a project you've got yourself here, Man.....Beautiful rework of the engine....Amazing work....

Oh, that looks cool, Man...I really like those rims....

Got the frame stretched....It only needed a little one....I plan on using the step boxes from the Lonestar kit....One on each side, though...It's gonna be a fleet truck, Sean, but it's gonna be MY fleet truck....I have a few scale million dollars to spend on my trucks.... Gotta keep the boys happy....
