  1. Pete 68 - really nice project ! Like the R700
  2. That's it !!!! Happy new years too
  3. I may weather this one up, hopefully that will allow some of the details to pop still. Some day , I'm gonna build something and just clear it..leaving it in the raw state .
  4. Awesome Tom very nice truck !
  5. Had a few minutes to putter today , decided to hang the plow on the truck hitch to see how everything looked. while I had the Meng bolts out I detailed out the side plates too.. lastly a full mockup .. later I'll add the lifting cylinder and other small parts I've left off . It's getting very close to having to permanently install the side wing post w bracing. Then I'll tackle the wing tower and spreader cab guard !
  6. Stellar results ! Really like how ya capture the classic look of these trucks
  7. Wow love these cars w the huge shark fins ! Miles of chrome and sitting low..I've gotta pick one of these kits up
  8. Very classy and love the flames !
  9. Wow nice addition ! The extension fits really well and adds just enough bed length. I bought a ramp bed on flea bay and it looks decent but the load has to be chosen carefully
  10. Looks like quite the project ! Sometimes that older paint can really be stubborn..better to leave it and cover w primer and recoat.
  11. Tbill - looks like a fantastic build , really dont see many of the Fords built and it's a sharp looking truck ! Ill get to added Only 2 more days till we can get building !!! Dont forget to post your starting photos if you havent already
  12. The CH is a very popular truck, luckily we have a fella casting one so we have the option waiting .
  13. I just placed an order for plow lights, I just emailed Manny, told him what I wanted he gave my price w shp then sent payment via PayPal, took about 15 minutes
  14. Welcome aboard ! Let me know before the 1st which you decide and I'll have Dan update the entry list
  15. Pretty cool tips ! I never thought of using them for cleaning out sanding sticks before ! I wouldn't use it for hobby work , but dad always wipes his files w bar soap before using them, keeps em clog free
  16. Force - are the Bandag printed tires the same as come in the papa truck kits now ? If so, I have a full set available.
  17. I personally think Force nailed it , the builders are out there. The manufacturers just have to figure out what they want to make it financially feasible as a kit. I've sent emails to several, and they've actually all returned them with the " we appreciate your info and have our team looking at options ."
  18. Sam - hmm any of your options would really make a great BRBO entry ! I know it doesn't help your decision Welcome along ! Those KW snapper kits are surprisingly really nice kits ! The tires on mine were probably the only let down , but easily replaced w am parts .
  19. Wow your really knocking this truck out ! Not to hijack your thread , but reminds me of a build I'm gathering parts for. My step dads IH 9300 , the first rig I've ridden in ! He pulls a Mac dump trailer behind it hauling road salt or corn Looking forward to your updates
  20. Thank you ! Thanks ! These projects are always more fun w good bones to start with Thanks !
  21. Thanks ! I've been working on rewiring daughters and our bathroom, so getting any bench time is tough ! Realized going up and down stairs all day wears me out
  22. Okay I sent iamsuperdan the updates, if I forgot anyone or messed up please let me know asap to change it . Wish the board would allow me to change them, but guess it's a spam potential. Few builders yet to decide on projects, let's dust off those builds you've planned to build and join in !!!
  23. Jerry - I would go the same color choice , seems I've been a bright color kick lately. The yellow w green would be very attractive.
