1/24 Peterbilt 579 Project Ideas?
kilrathy10 replied to vincen47's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
LOL !!!!!! You know the deal...... -
Gonna begin to modify a New Ray Peterbilt 579......I'm really digging this toy, for sure.....All Y'all know I'm gonna paint this baby ORANGE !!!! For starters.....I'm not sure what all I'm gonna do, but you'll see it, here.....This is the starting point..... Here it is next to my Italeri Volvo and step deck I built a while ago.....Looks the part, I'd say......Can't wait to get rid of those stupid buttons and fix those mirrors.....Once that's done, it shouldn't take too much more to make it look realistic.....

If you don't want it, I'll trade you something for it.....I like to use the wheels and tires for my 1/16 scale builds.....Just shoot me a PM....Got plenty of stuff....They work great for race trailers...... -
1/24 Peterbilt 579 Project Ideas?
kilrathy10 replied to vincen47's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Got a couple of these in, today and I've got a few ideas already.....I haven't been this exited about a "toy" since I was 5.....These things are not as accurate as they could be, but they're pretty good for what they are....With a few modifications, they really could be awesome...I've studied Tim's work, and he's done some great things.....Mine won't be as ambitious, but they won't have to be to improve upon what they've offered........The lowboy trailer is, actually pretty nice.....It even has a detachable goose neck.....Very simplistic in how it works, but sturdy...Came with the same crane and excavator as with the 1/32 scalers, but they scale out to about 1/25 scale, anyway.....I set one up next to my Volvo and step deck I built a number of years ago, and to be honest, I'm impressed.....Made me smile a lot.....For some reason, I got the black one with the excavator for $54.99 plus $7.95 flat rate shipping and the blue one with the crane for exactly $8.00 cheaper.....No idea why.....But a pretty good deal for a truck, trailer, and a load......Can't wait to get to modifying these bad boys.... -

TAT Transtar 5 Car Hauler DONE
kilrathy10 replied to kilrathy10's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Lol.....After I added the extra adornments in that spot, I remembered that.....But if it were a real truck, that stuff would be removable......I just didn't get too detailed with this one being my first attempt and all.....I did good just getting the over all look right..... Maybe next time, I'll pay a little more attention..... -
