  1. Can't wait to see your work on this Autocar
  2. I would seal the first coat under a gloss coat then apply your panel line accent. Then clean up excess w thinner, this should protect the other layers
  3. Looking forward to your progress pics
  4. Bumper reminds me of Autocar..any more hints lol
  5. Nice option not only for pneumatic trailers but any builds w large plumbing..like a concrete pump truck...hmm
  6. Excellent start! Good idea using the brass rods for added strength
  7. really looking forward to your progress !
  8. Looking forward to the C10, and whats in store for the Dodge truck fans
  9. Definitely a welcome cab ! Keep updating your progress Dave does offer the 9300 hood, I have one stashed for a future project.
  10. So glad the Duplicolor worked put for you ! Its my first line of defense working w resin parts. The primer might take a couple days to really cure, but my squirrels have enough projects going to allow me time lol Love the modern look of that hood, gonna be an awesome truck
  11. I've struggled w fisheyes on resin, no matter how much cleaning I've done. I spoke numerous times w Gary Wallace about it, and he always suggested Duplicolor sandable primer. Light coats then color. Its cut my issues in half Too bad you lost your cab, but having a backup plan keeps you moving.
  12. This build is finished ! I added a pogo w air hoses today, and used a few of the tribute decals around the truck. Gary was a huge WV fan, so I picked a decal to show that. My buddy just mentioned the 5th wheel was below the fenders...guess I'll add some taller mounts..good catch ! The outside Under glass photos will be added soon Thanks to everyone who commented on this build
  13. nice looking build ! These DM Macks really had a rugged look
  14. Thanks Dan! Yeah, he is missed. I look thru my collection, and smile when I realize nearly every build had parts Gary produced. Hard to believe its been nearly a year already since his sudden passing.
  15. Looking forward to your Mach 1 ! We have a newer version of the Mach. 2003 in Azure blue..fun cruiser
  16. Thanks ! Excellent job! Plenty of inspiration
  17. Thanks Warren ! Wknd update..the huge 12x24 wheels are painted and going on. I started fitting the details behind the cab. A spare hydro tank from Plow chaser fit perfectly for the era, some diamond plate decking, and of course the frame ramps. Thanks for following ?
  18. Looking good! The stance is just right If the mufflers aren't touching your not low enough lol
