Looking good !

Rotflmao that was a great commercial

I'm sure you'll have this whipped together in no time ! Even 30 minutes each night help finish small steps then suddenly its built ! Tom already nailed the ejector hole solution, small amounts will build up fixing those

That doesn't look anything like the trunnion offered in the R model I'm working on. Springs sorta but the stands and cross bar barely fit where the " drawing" shows..but were past that stage thankfully The dm one did assemble better and slightly more surface area to glue the suspension together. Guess it's my lack of building these kits that cause me to struggle

Thanks for taking the time to photograph your updates, I just picked up a d8 and it will need these improvements. Funny cause I purchased an IH 4270 from a fella in Canada selling a huge collection. I was inspired to use that to pull my scratchbuilt Roger's

Looking forward to future updates great start

Very nice work love the metallic color on the trailer

Tossed a few parts into paint, getting closer to wrapping up here. Wheels got a coat of alclad steel then mist coated w chrome..sorta look I was after The Maxidyne was painted w a eye ball mix of engine gray /gold to give effect of used engine..very happy how it turned out after drying the trans is alclad steel.. The interior was sprayed w a custom mix of rust shades for a baseball glove color, but the pics wont load..I'll try again after dash is detailed. Thanks for following

Very nice job

Yup mines that gaudy green.. Stalled project number 20..major lack of interest dealing with fit n finish

I thought the same about 116 , cold starting unit, but I've been wrong before

Very cool idea KJ

You build is looking good!

Awesome work really like how this turned out

Pat - to hopefully answer your question about mounting the floor, I did just that on my paystar mixer. The cab slid right over the outside and fit well.

Fantastic build

Nice build

Really like how your build is going ! I never realized how many options these trucks had I could swear I saw these type spoke tires on shapeways, but now cant find them...sorry

Gonna be a show stopper

Your mack looks good so far, and totally agree the rear suspension was terrible to assemble. Either sleeper would look good on these road warriors

Thanks ! I hadn't sprayed the clear yet, now it's much richer and surprisingly for my paint jobs..shiny and run free lol

Tom - that's definitely gonna be its future having to paint all my stalled projects lol

Love watching your builds come together Thanks for IDing the lines , I thought they might be monofilament

I broke in the booth today with some paint ! Tamiya Mica Red ..absolutely love this color . Just the right amount of metallic .The lighting makes it look orange..sorry Now the frame gets a coat of sg black..best investment purchasing this booth..its snowing outside and I can spray anytime now ! Thanks Tom for the advice

Awesome details
