1965 Peterbilt 281

Great color choice! Period perfect and very eye catching as well. Well done! -
Outstanding work! Perfect weathering, looks used, not abused. The spare tire and bird droppings are excellent touches.

Thank you very much. I don't know if I would say masterpiece, but it is one of my better efforts. Your words go a long way in pursuing a better result next time. Inspiration, if you like. Thank you! -

I really appreciate everyone's responses. It helps to step back and take someone else's point of view. It brings me objectivity, thank you all. -
1980 Kenworth W900A
purepmd replied to Jay Lankford's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
You've got a real eye-catching build there. Nice Work. The colors remind me of the Miami Dolphins insignia. -
A couple of things to keep in mind as you read this: I am a scale snob. I have a 50 year obsession with 1/25th and 1/24th scale, so I usually never look at others. I also normally don't look at Euro trucks, American large cars are my thing, but your model is awesome! The kit itself, the build quality, and the color you chose, excellent!

I apologize for not being more specific about the source of the P/E. The Harold Weber created frets are available at STSUPPLYCO@YAHOO.COM in the cab & hood parts section. They are great to order from, with an incredible selection of stuff. -

White Road Boss
purepmd replied to Gary Chastain's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
This IS a case of art imitating life. The White Motor Company, at one time, owned Autocar, White Western Star, Diamond Reo, and White Freightliner. They were providing cabs for Diamond Reo, White, Autocar, and Western Star conventionals all at the same time. All the AMT kits reflect this. This carried over to cabovers for a short time. The Road Commander II is the same White based cab as the new for '79 Western Star cabover -

Big “R” Roadboss 2
purepmd replied to DRIPTROIT 71's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Excellent weathering! It just screams fleet workhorse! Very well done! -
Of all things, it was the broom on the back of the tank body that caught my attention. After that, I was enthralled by all of the so well done additions and details. Just excellent!
