    I have the Italeri conversion kit with the crane. After seeing yours I am thinking of adding it to my Bison. I I know it is not the same quality but it will help fill the void between the cab and trailer. Thanks for the idea.

    Beautiful.....

    Thanks Brian! I went a searching and found this site. http://www.kws900.com/ It looks like this is the 102 in version. ......hmmm, too many ideas. lol

    I have been sorting through my big rig stash for the first time since the move....about four years ago. I had forgotten this cab. I usually keep all pertinent info together but not this time. Other than being a Kenworth, I have no memory of what it is, but it has a really short hood. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    That is a cool subject Brian.

    I think this is what I will shoot for since I have an Aeromax kit and the trailer and car. All I know is I must not have been entering the correct info when I searched years ago, all I found were pics of the trailer. Kerry, this is one in a long list of projects. Dave, heck of a neighborhood to grow up in, for sure! Force, thanks for all those great pics and info.

    Auto fill and in a hurry are not a good combination. Thanks for catching that. Kerry, I am glad to see the Aeromax since I have one in the stash. Even with the discrepancies in design with the AMT trailer, I am sure I will be pleased with the overall effect. Thanks everyone!

    A couple of questions regarding the Bill Elliott transporter. 1) what tractor towed the trailer? I googled the race team/transporter/ tractor and really could not tell exactly what it was....other than a Ford I presume. 2) is there room in the transporter for two cars, stacked I would presume... You notice I do not say "assume".... Thanks!

    That truck looks awesome! I will be blatantly plagiarizing some of your details in future builds.

    I am excited, that will be a piece of cake to turn into a unibody!

    Thanks Jim. I wanted something that would be nice enough to incorporate into any room in the house. My wife actually let's me have them in the living room.

    I am also going to have this case copied. It should hold six tractor/ trailer combos with an additional tractor on each shelf.

    I also had a friend give me this nice oak display case which would hold four tractor/trailer combos and an additional four tractors.
  14. Sam I Am
    I then had him modify the shelves and depth, which gave me a case for 1/12 motorcycles and a case that will hold 1/20 F1.

    A number of years ago I had this dilemma and started researching cases. I found a site that sold cases for diecast 1/24 nascars that gave all the dimensions. I showed the pics and dimensions to a friend who does cabinetry and this is what he built. It has plexiglass which makes it really lightweight and will hold 30 cars.

    Thanks Pat !

  18. Sam I Am
    That is the color of my last 620.

    Thanks Brian. I had plenty of time on my hands due to unemployment caused by a health scare. I always found model building therapeutic and it proved so once again. Everything looking up once again, so no worries. I really appreciate all the comments and am looking forward to seeing the rest of the group build in the galleries.

    I just said it once, so I will say it again... Super clean build Brian! I also want to thank everyone for being so educational on this site. Both with the models and the 1:1. I used to see one of these run around town all the time with a little dump box on it and wondered what model Mack it was. Now I know. Oh, and if ever a Mac could be considered "cute", that little dump truck was just the cutest little thing.

    I found the decals offered in both my Titan and Bison kits to be rather disappointing. I really want to add some sort of company logo to the doors and a decent license plate. Does anyone offer generic trucking company decal sheets? Thanks, Sam

    Calling this one finished. I really needed an oob to get me back to the bench. Probably the worst AMT i ever worked with for cleanup and prep. Thanks to everyone in the group build for the motivation.
