Great Scott batman ..your flying thru another build !!! Looks like you'll have plenty of fresh builds for cicero

Thanks Warren ! I've come up w a work around , using multiple parts to make a mirror frame. I still have to add the triangle brace per my tech consultant Mr Billngs ...lol using spare parts from mack and kw for the frame closer to the finish line now !!

Excellent tip !! Build looks fantastic

Thanks Dennis ! Mine arent exactly like the ones Rob Nagle built , but I like how thin they ended up. Now for the dreadful mirrors...

Hahaha no thanks , I have another 361 in primer that's slated for a barney dickinson mixer, and your idea of one piece " glass" sounds good

Been frustrating getting this update to submit, guess I was too chatty..everyone knows I'm a chatterbox lol. Heres the wipers on the 361 these were constructed from small strips of evergreen and a meng bolt. Thanks for following along!

Friday update ! Those tiny details ..actually a pair of them...wipers ! The idea came from a fellow modeler in another mag for classic truck modeling.

The blue is perfect

I've been trying all day to update a post and it keeps refreshing back to page about the contest issue being printed soon....

Fantastic work !!! Theres another brand excavator parked near home they've been using to clear brush along the road I'd love to build. Definitely would make a great conversation piece

Off the charts build ! Ditto what's been said before, ya have to look twice to realize it's not a real truck. Killer work

Fantastic execution doing half n half !

Glad to hear your back at the bench , sorry for the loss of friends and family too Awesome work on the cab 2.0 , you'd never be satisfied with the other one if ya left it

Thanks everyone i appreciate the feedback ! Yeah sometimes I get Hooked and chained down by tiny details..lol couldn't resist

Really coming together now awesome work

Looking forward to your build

Been puttering around adding a few details I'd spotted during my walk around. Guess my armor building OCD kicked in..I found some small link chain, and clevis' for the tailgate. the lift cylinder hoses are small diameter solder that'll attach to a valve yet to be mounted. Now completely for fun , the interior got livened up w a set of fans from double take ! Another item I wanted to add was a water bottle I spotted left on the dash...details like these always convince me these trucks are used by people, not just stored. Chucking up a scrap piece of clear sprue , and shaping w files and razor eventually gave me a suitable bottle.. More to come thanks for watching

Really looking good !!!

Our local HL closed unexpectedly, now it's over an hr drive to the nearest store. Good time to make day trip now to see what's discounted

Wow awesome fabrication, and your paint screams 70s all the way

Buddy of mine just scored a couple trucks kits, actually called to see if I wanted any...sure I'll take the IH 4300 !

Awesome work

Quick update from last night...the glass goes in ! Dave gives the builder a slip of clear acetate for the glass w a pattern making it easier. The challenge is those small curved side glass.. Ya can see the reflection in the pics.. I secured the glass w Pledge aka Future which also helps clear any bobbles in the acetate. Ya can also see the air cleaner makes an appearance and plumbed out . Later I'll add the bare metal foil clamps . Thanks for watching Any comments welcome

Wow shocked it wasnt a Swift tractor
