  1. Thanks Jeff, it is Tamiya TS-30 over Tamiya grey primer.
  2. Oh wow, now I will start looking for one of my own. You guys are not nice....
  3. Thanks Jim, that picture shows me where the air filter stack goes in relation to the top of the cab. There is no spot on the air filter assembly showing where part #7 should attach. This also shows me where the exhaust stack goes in relation to the air intake stack. Part #10 that goes from the crossover pipe to the stack is missing from my kit. So your pic shows me what my height should look like and once they are glued down I can bend my own #10
  4. Getting more fiddly bits sorted, painted, and attached. One question for those who have built this kit with the single exhaust. Can you please post a pic here of how the air intake/exhaust stacks mount up. The instructions are a little vague and I may even be missing a part...
  5. Funny how sinks turn into parts washers...spray booths...etc.
  6. Hmmm. Now I need to figure out which thread needs the kettle corn and which gets the extra buttery.....
  7. I agree about the sleeper.
  8. WoW! I really want to add plumbing to one of my builds someday. Thanks for the great pics as well as the specific items you use. I forsee a trip to HL or Michael's in the near future.
  9. Thanks guys! Don't worry Bill, it will all come to a screeching halt soon. Had to see what the color would look like on the cab
  10. Whoa ! Put some pants on dude !! Seriously though, great detail in this build and am glad you resurrected it.
  11. Super clean work. Love the color. Years ago my father in law drove a 1983 Mac dump truck. I have been collecting everything needed to reproduce it.
  12. Hmmmm....I think I need to get a case of popcorn.
  13. Okay, here is the basic rolling chassis. It even sits square. Woo hoo!
  14. Thanks Jim, the bench is small so it gets cluttered easy....but at least I am back at it. I am planning on a satin black chassis, and a GM color, Bright Aqua for the cab and wheel centers.
  15. Nice lineup Jim! This is my first cab over, so I do not have anything to compare it to. Chassis is ready for primer as well as the engine. I do not know if I am making progress or just a big mess. lol
  16. So who wants to build this ? https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/enthusiasts/this-creative-genius-macgyvered-an-rv-out-of-a-fire-truck-semi-and-wrecker/ar-BBTaJ0e?li=BBnbfcL
  17. I had a '59 project truck a few years back. Will be following this one for sure.
  18. I have a few dump trucks in the stash. Looking forward to following yours.
  19. Good decision in toning down all the bling.
  20. I am in plastic heaven with all these COEs!
  21. I enjoy looking at the differences between the Euro COEs and ours. I saw a picture of one years ago that was a tow truck with a bull bar. Liked it so well that I collected the bits to build my own.
  22. I have one of these that needs a complete restoration. Love the lines and looking forward to yours.
  23. I have a couple old Internationals in the stash and really like the looks of the ones in the galleries. The fire rig is a great tribute.
