  1. I also had a friend give me this nice oak display case which would hold four tractor/trailer combos and an additional four tractors.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. WoW! Am lovin this build more and more. What exactly are the colors you are using for the cab,frame,and engine?
  5. That is the color of my last 620.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.

  9. 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
  10. An outside pic and one of my fleet of Chevies.
  11. 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.
  12. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
  13. Thanks again everyone ! Before I button it up and put it under glass I have one quick question. My cab is sitting in its rear mounts, is level with the shifting plate, and sits level on the chassis, also the bumper is installed in the proper location and the cab tilts just fine.....but....does the gap between the bumper and cab look too wide? I can move the bumper up a bit if needed, or call it good and move on to the next build.what do you all think?
  14. Great attention to detail on this ! I envy you, I am just barely getting one kit on my bench, let alone three.
  15. Just got back from Michaels and found almost everything you listed there. Just need to order the Hex beads online. Thanks again!
  16. Thanks for the kind comments everyone. I think the cab is finally assembled! Still debating where/if the antennas are going on. Now for the FUN part, mounting the cab...
  17. I think they are both looking great!
  18. Now this is crazy, I have owned three rangers myself. Two '86s and a '88.
  19. I did not know that about the hauler. Thanks for the info. I see a couple of mine being turned into moving vans.
  20. That was fast ! Thanks Ron
