  1. Looking good! Really like the 5600 hood on the Paystar
  2. Nice start ! 1st I've seen this casting , doesn't look too shabby
  3. That engine is a work of art..too bad its mostly covered up
  4. Thanks Dave ! I assumed these were for show, not go.
  5. We toured the National Corvette museum yesterday, and near the end of the day, they have a beautiful display of movie/ show cars. One that peaked my curiosity, was the Popcorn Wagon from designer Carl Casper. The double blower arrangement was interesting, and caused me to wonder if its actually functional? We missed the unveiling of the new Sky Dome display by a couple days, all the cars were being uncovered and moved when we toured.
  6. Well done w the corrugated evergreen sides. The printed parts look good also
  7. Thanks , I didn't want to let ya down this late in the game lol Thanks! I tried the flashing metal, but it didn't shape as clean. I should've annealed the brass before making the curves easier
  8. @Mopar - D- your anti - glare light covers are finished! I curled up a few scraps of brass etch for the light covers . While I was working on the front, I started building a set of wipers. Thanks for following along
  9. Great looking period correct wrecker Too bad to hear about the tamiya tape bleeding problems, hope ya find something better
  10. Hehehe you implied correctly! I've been slacking off..caught daughters head cold the last few days..can't fab parts w this cough. Dr hooked me up w proper meds..won't be long Yep
  11. Amazing display! I keep looking over the photos trying to pick out items I'd recognize where ya sourced em from..like Easter eggs lol
  12. Many , not all, of the Brockways I peeked into during their annual homecoming show in Cortland, had a light green interior. There of course were several redone in a variety of colors..ya can't go wrong ! It's always enjoyable checking out the trucks being restored, that the owners were able to get road worthy. Not a cabver, but still a special truck that made an appearance a few yrs ago
  13. Remarkable work! Really like these boxy tractors
  14. I was toying idea of the stop sign, but after chatting w my Uncle, their buses didn't have them till a few yrs later. I might add one anyway..hehehe
  15. Nice work so far ! The hard suction hoses look excellent
  16. Really enjoy following your detailed build ! Glad to see your success tinting the windows, I've tried in the past and ended up w a foggy finish. Keep up the great work
  17. I heard Daniel was working up the molds this week ! Our truck/ equipment builders will have another engine option. This wouldn't have been possible without the kindness of our member Tom Decker aka @redneckrigger offering his support. Thanks ..I keep finding other things to add @Mopar - D- thanks so much. I told my in laws the bus needs its own shelf..so now I get to hang one lol
  18. Progress on the bus..3d printed steps I purchased from moluminum and wrapped up the mirrors down to the last bits till I shelve it awhile. The DT466 engine I wanted is being cast by a fellow modeler, and once its done I'll wrap this up
  19. Excellent work on the rivets and smaller details
