  1. Ditto !! A weather worn autocar love it
  2. It's gonna have a green leaker..ya know I'll be lurking ! Looks like a great project , especially how good the inspiration photo appears
  3. Thanks ! Me too !!much more interesting than reruns of reality shows least cartoons have a believable plot
  4. Thanks I appreciate the comments Finally cleaned up all the wrapping paper , and stored the lights and tree for next yr. I stole a few minutes during a nap to putter . Started getting the modified boom together, realized I'd need a 3rd section to model this truck. Luck would have it, a left over frame rail fit . I shortened sections 1 and 2 and altered the ends.. Pics showed a reinforcing plate along the boom, so I sketched a pattern I'll transfer later Naps almost over so gotta get ready for more cartoons..thanks for looking
  5. Very tempted to enter with a semi tractor and a monster in line CAT ... Just gotta come up with the proper tractor...
  6. Looks fantastic I'll save a bag of popcorn for the load Happy new year
  7. Man that headache rack looks sweet on that work horse !! Definitely glad I could contribute Just loving how everything looks together I certainly should add a log hauler to the must have list , but can't find time to work on much lately ..gotta love insulation work .
  8. Wow..awesome work Very interesting how great the elastic looks for the hose lines, it's very authentic.
  9. Looking good don't stop now !!! Cool touch adding the square hydraulic tank Again the color choice looks fantastic. .
  10. Stunning like everyone else has commented I've never appreciated the cruiseliner tillnow
  11. Looking very good love the mahogany wood decking
  12. Thanks Merry Christmas everyone
  13. Love how ya mismatch the tires ! It's gonna be another great kw for your fleet
  14. Thanks alot !!!! I've nearly wrapped up the wrecker body. I fashioned up an angled oil tank behind boom carriage nothing fancy ...not really enough room to detail out. Last up was the rear storage covers. I wanted plain covers instead of tread plate like on the front. Couple patterns from card stock and I had a set All that's left is a final sanding to clean up boo boos then primer thanks for following Any criticism welcome
  15. First gear really makes some fantastic trucks in 1 -24 . Wish the kit companies would follow suit The armor guys get spoiled since most the injection molding companies "copy" equipment from somewhere else and sell as their own...then everyone else rushes to market the same one making a flood of new kits of obscure vehicles. Just this past year seemed everyone was producing Abrams kits w full interiors and engines. Places like Meng, Tacom or even trumpeter could really wow us with kits if they would invest the tooling
  16. Kj doesn't list the outrigger but can supply you with them, I just picked some up at recent show The trailer is coming out fantastic
  17. Very cool twin steer IH definitely appears to be an oil field truck. Certainly make a great and interesting model given the ease of locating the paystar kit
  18. Thanks Gator !!yeah I can't find a single thing now..except the evergreen lol Started adding the flooring on the wrecker bed, trial and error won out . It's very rough at the moment but once I add the top panels it'll his my shoddy work....back to watching frozen w my daughter Always get at least one fracture in the diamond plate..this time was no different. Oh well a little gap filling sup er glue should hide
  19. Beat me to it..was searching for the article you mentioned Thought jamie had a trailer suspension also
