  1. Thanks, excellent examples. Really like the Terpening trucks.
  2. Oh those Western trucks are awesome, thanks! What a nice fleet. I checked them out, WDTC even has a photo gallery on their website, obviously a company that takes extreme pride in their trucks. I bet the drivers take a little more pride in what they do when they take more pride in what they drive, maybe not, but it can't hurt. The reason I was thinking about fleets was coming up with ideas for a future Prostar project, because out of the box, it builds into a truck with a upgraded interior and some atypical chrome, and it isn't a common o/o truck (maybe it is?). Thought it might make a nice upgraded fleet truck - though it wouldn't come close to a Western, TMC, etc. 379 or W900L, of course.
  3. Most fleet trucks tend to have the reputation of being plain jane, not that there is anything wrong with that. It makes sense from a money standpoint. Owner operators are usually the ones to order the high end specs and even dress them up afterwards, but I'm sure there are plenty of upscale fleets out there. I can think of TMC, their fleet of black and chrome trucks are are nicer than the average basic, run of the mill look. I'd post a pic when I get a chance. Any others?
  4. That is really a unique and cool project. Great weathering.
  5. Nice. I'll pick one up. I've always been a fan of "everyday" cars as models.
  6. Awesome! Another one they should have made into a kit.
  7. Great start, looking forward to seeing the complete project. Really cool big bunk coe.
  8. That is really cool. Yes, tell us more about the sign please.
  9. Ok, ya got me. How'd you do the parking lot pic?
  10. That's... Awesome!
  11. Absolutely amazing. What an army of support the operation demands. I have the utmost respect for all who are involved.
  12. He was trying to get a laugh. Worked for me. I laughed real good. Probably also to make a point that they keep making the same old stuff.
  13. A modern spread axle flat sounds like a good choice to me. People like the idea of being able to change up visible and interesting loads. Universal appeal.
  14. Wonderful. Hope it happens. Thanks.
  15. If this is to be released, is it the aerodyne k100 cabover? Like the papa truck?
  16. Thanks. I was wondering if that's where they came from.
  17. I'm impressed with how great those tires look, especially with your weathering. Who makes them?
  18. Received my moluminum order, the engine is an extremely detailed, excellent casting. Great tires, too. Highly recommended.
  19. The frame looks awesome. Just the right amount of weathering.
  20. That is one sweet large car.
  21. What an excellent build. And yes, those brackets, including the ones for the visor, are rarely, if ever, modeled. Very nice work. I like the light bezels too.
  22. Very cool. Love the custom grill and wheels.
