  1. That is just too cool....I'm loving this one.....Being a Star Trek fan for many years, I find this one a pretty awesome thing....Beautiful work on the mods.....
  2. Awesome work on these....I think this is the VERY FIRST time I've seen someone actually "build" one of these trucks.....I missed my chance to pick one of those wreckers from Hobby Lobby when they used to carry them....Kickin' myself ever since.....Excellent job on all of the different variations of the tow bodies....Great job....
  3. Good job, Buddy.....Nice shade of blue on this one....
  4. I've got one I can trade off, if you want....Just PM me with what sort of trade fodder you may have.....
  5. You've got a marvelous collection of awesome truck builds.....Very nice work.....Welcome aboard, Man.....Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff.....That Mack is a wonderful piece of work.....My favorite of this bunch.....Awesome....
  6. Interesting idea.....Looks like a few trucks I've seen around town.....Nice display for it, too....
  7. Nice work on this baby....I've always wanted to build something like this.....Great job.....
  8. Oh, Man.....She's a beauty.....Awesome job on all of it.....Just too nice....
  9. Oh, this looks GOOOD, Man!!!! That's what I'm talking about......You did a great job mixing in those parts.....Everything looks awesome.....This is a great looking setup....I like the tanks....I like the air cleaners....I like the paint scheme.....Just a beautiful job.....
  10. This looks pretty cool, Man....Very cool....Amazing what you can do with a toy, these days.....They come pretty close in quite a few cases.....I agree.....This is good enough...I've done a couple of toys up for loads......Jada has an excavator that looks awesome after a few tweaks......I've seen quite a few guys paint them to resemble CATs....Just the repainting of the tracks and main body makes it work........Can't wait to see it on the back of your lowboy whenever you get that set up....
  11. Those are some pretty nice looking cabs, Man....
  12. Excellent work on this BEAST !!! I like what you did to make that dump body work.....I like the fenders, as well.....Everything looks awesome.....Those wheels and tires are just too cool.....Can't wait to see this one done..... Beautiful, Man.....Just beautiful....
  13. That's a great idea for a load.....Very nice scratching going on....Great job.... As a side note: I find myself at the dollar store all the time looking for little goodies like those wheels you got.....I've found all sorts of things.... Awesome job on that trailer, as well.....I really have to build something like that.....
  14. Nice job on the weathering, as well as the cab pin stripes......That's a very difficult thing to do, for sure....Great job.....
  15. Gotcha....Take care of those Honey Do's......Everything is looking good.....
  16. Man, this is just too cool.....Awesome, awesome work on that hood.....The whole truck is a feat of engineering.....Beautiful.....I can't think of enough words to describe how good this is......Maybe after I pick my jaw up off the floor, I'll have some......WOW !!!!
  17. They're both looking pretty good.....Everything is very clean.....Looks like you've been doing it all your life....I like the heat wear on the exhaust for the IH.....Great job...Can't wait to see what you do with these babies....
  18. Gotta say.....That is one mean looking Scout, Man.....Excellent work.....
  19. LOL !!!!! Aww, Man.....I feel for you....I experienced a little heart ache, but you experienced actual pain......I guess it could have been worse for me..... I feel better, already.....
  20. Now, THAT would be cool......I'm really thinking about doing something along those lines for a build.....Another builder has posted some really nice old cabover haulers on this site since I posted my reply that would be nice to haul this thing, as well.....Again, excellent work, Man....
  21. Great video of the old dozer loading and unloading....Haven't had a chance to watch them all, but I watched with intensity....Very interesting....
  22. Sorry to hear about those frustrating mishaps.....I've had a few of those happen, myself.....I'll never forget the time I was building an old Scania cabover.....I built the engine and painted it up real fine.....I don't know what possessed me to put it on the bumper of the truck to dry...Still trying to figure that one out.......The next day, I went to work as normal.....Couldn't wait to get home to finish it up.....Well....You should have seen me trying to figure out where my dadgum engine went....Then, I remembered putting it on the bumper..... So....With flashlight in hand, I found one piece about a block from the house; another piece about ten paces or so from that one, and the rest had been run over several times from the looks of the carnage...... OK....No problem.....I pieced it back together as best I could, and reasoned it wouldn't be seen much, anyway.......Got it all back together and into the chassis nice and neat like....Came time for the marriage of my beautifully painted cab and the a fore mentioned chassis, and you guessed it.....It somehow fell out of my hands and onto the floor.....Bounced and flipped a couple of times before it all settled into 3, distinct pieces.....Well.....All I can say, Man.....You're not alone....Stuff happens.....I did, eventually finish the model, but needless to say, it will never see a contest.....
  23. No question.....It is a tough kit, but at the time of it's issue and reissue, for that matter, it was the least expensive of the two manufacturers of this kit I know of.....I think only Revell and AMT/Matchbox made versions of this one.....The Revell being the better and more expensive of the two....I think that's why there are skill levels set up, now....You definitely need some skill to put it together.....Fledgling modelers BEWARE.....
  24. Awesome work on this old tractor and trailer setup.....I really like how you added the crane to it....Great job....Very nice....The whole build looks nice and clean......
  25. Your wife is turning out to be quite the builder.....Bob the Builder?? No, no....Babe the Builder, maybe?? I don't know.....
