Sorry to hear about the broken arm, hopefully you'll heal quickly

Excellent work! The little paint tweaks really stand out Earlier topic about the access door in the hood reminded me of our towns IH workstar

Nice start!

Really like the light bar you've fashioned

Nice redo on the service body !

Nicely done w the paint! The interior looks fantastic

Small update today, couple parts I needed to build. Battery box and a couple diamond plate cab extensions to hide the peek thru underneath. Lastly the exhaust pipe w kit muffler Fired up the booth, airbrush and Alclad Airframe aluminum, and sprayed everything. I'm really starting to like this Alclad here's the other part of the exhaust painted Testors stainless steel Well..the rivalry is getting close to starting..more later Jeff

Nice progress ! Your interior plan looks great, thats where I failed doing my build last yr. Couldn't wrap my head around fitting everything The baby blue looks great, might switch your wheel color to a silver tone though vs red

Awesome looking Mack all mocked up!

Thanks, I'll have to grab a bottle next time I order. There's definitely times when a rattle can is a better tool Thanks, it almost glows in the dark lol Temps have been barely above 0 in Central NY, and keeping the heat downstairs instead of my upstairs work bench has been priority w the boss...I'll have an update very soon

Thanks! I haven't tried the spray yet, but heard it looks good

@Scott Eriksen I have a resin one from Keystone before he closed down, there's a local fella casting them nearby if your interested in that route

Clean work! Moving the firewall back would definitely add a few gray hairs to my growing collection Keep up the killer work. Too bad someone couldn't cast this after

Nice work so far on Big Iron! Those air brake chambers look fantastic

Very nice! I wondered the same about accessing the internal parts. There was a large fire apparatus builder Salsbury close by till they moved. E-one took over the plant for awhile, but since moved

Now the hard part for me, bashing engines into spaces not meant to fit. I'm using the Cat 3406 from the W900 snapper, just cause I had one laying around. The wheel of death made it fit I masked off the hood grill surround, and grill and sprayed them with Alclad chrome over gloss black. The headlight bezels are kit parts

Nice factory fresh Mack ! Excellent kitbash

Even though it looks like a never ending problem with the hood profile, you've shown on numerous occasions the ability to correct it to your liking! If ya cut corners now, it would always annoy ya . Keep at it in small doses, we'll all be here w support ..or sarcastic remarks..mostly support lol

Unbelievable details Someone w much better eye sight than me lol

@Mopar - D can't wait to see whats next on your bench! Yeah I got a few fire trucks planned, just need to find space for the other builds

Nice work Lee The interior definitely looks like a typical work truck ready for another trip

Following along ! Other than Mopar-D, I haven't seen many of these built.

Fantastic work! Really like the tip about using tape for the hard suction lines

Thanks Dan! Glad to see ya lurking in the rigs again Masked up the rear chevron today, quickish work w 1/4 " tamiya tape. Noticed a wonky thin space above doors, photos showed a panel across there. A quick browse of the evergreen stock I hoard, found a suitable piece. Fired up the Gaahleri swallowtail and painted the stripes w safety lime. Now to clear the back, then paint all the Alclad aluminum parts. If I clear everything later, I could (will) lose the polished sheen. Thanks for following along 😀
