Finally got around to posting these under glass . It's the Foose build, the only thing I changed was the engine...that's a 5.0 supercharged Coyote from the Mustang GT Color was Testors Red lacquer w wet look clear This was a seriously fun build that basically built itself, everything fit together fantastic.

Brockway 361

Small update for today ! Moved forward..way forward from the last update . I figured it was time to knock out the plow frame , and pto pump. Bashed together more evergreen angles and sheet ..and lost enough Meng bolts to the carpet monster to seriously risk an emergency re stock order . The few that landed close enough the squirrels gathered up. Those tan hooks were off a 1/35 Abrams...a quick calculus equation showed the size difference was close enough lol A peek from behind also shows the new engine mount for the NHC 250 the 361 will have . A traded ACar from Dr Kerry came in handy this time..most of my builds get " green leakers " -
Hmmm? What to do???

Thanks Jim ! Scratching one was easier than modifying a kit one..except my usual error of getting parts cut straight lol Thanks ! Think we al have stalled builds when something different catches our eye ..I could join the finish stalled builds group for yrs lol -

Looks like a fun project Kerry , if ya decide to ditch the dented parts , I'm sure to have replacements lol Either way you'll definitely have fun building in your style and I'm headed for snacks to watch it come together! Gotta skip popcorn nowadays argg -
Mack R Model

Definitely a good kit to create different styles ! If your looking to go more modern, detail master sells a grill photo etch set that's super nice. Theres so many options , the choices are endless. I may have a spare set of round tanks if your interested in them -

Beautiful work KJ ! All the subtle details really pop, even looks like rubber rub strips on the fuel tank straps ! The stripes are super nice are they from Jerry -

Brockway 361

I started fab on the last major part, the rear gate . I wasnt planning it to move keeping it much simpler, just hinges and details to look busy ! My squirrels get distracted enough w builds , making everything move , and they'd never get anything done ! square tube , 040 sheet and a few drops of glue got me here..then I spotted the small access door...my OCD went ballistic that over hang will be sanded flush and rounded over .. the door tracks are 90 degree angle and triangle strips for the ribs . Next to add the swing hinges and lift cylinder for that door . Back to work ! -

Hey Tesla - tickets are free to watch ! I actually pulled the resin cab out last night digging for a few parts , I really had the bug to mess w it...but must finish the 361 first Thanks glad ya like it ! Nice simple flat panels then add plenty of detail eye candy to fill the voids... Let's show the tail gate in progress now.. -
