  1. He's not a Vet....... he is a kid
  2. Now you can all see why I blocked him....
  3. yeah he has been busy.....but I gotta put an order in for some more stacks for my other LoneStar that I'm building soon.
  4. Awesome job JT!.... But what's with everyone using kitty litter?.... Someone should be original and use some small rock or stone found in the model railroad section of your hobby shop...or maybe some fish aquarium stone from Pet depot or Pets Mart..... Just a thought...lol
  5. I just talked to him... send him a message on Facebook Jason.
  6. blah...blah...blah... Haters keep hating......GO PATS! :P
  7. Thanks guys..........Mike I have the trailer just about built and ready for paint as we speak
  8. Well.... You would never know that there are more important issues in the world......every time you turn the tv on, someone is talking about defeated footballs... It's getting rather old and sickening!.... It's done and over with... People just need to move on! All I have to say is ..... "let's bring that trophy back to New England boys!".... Go Patriots!
  9. I can hardy wait to see what will happens after the Pats win the Super Bowl Sunday..... The arm chair critics will be out in full force.... With their expert analysis of the game...lmao!
  10. There are a lot of arm chair critics like Harry on this subject....... It just amazes me on how quick everyone is acting like the Pats committed a murder or something. Nobody knows the REAL facts on the situation..... not even the league but....everyone is quick to throw them under the bus or hang them so to speak. Get over it people!.... The Pats could have beat the Colts without Brady even being on the field!. They dominated all aspects of the game!... Mainly the running game..... Like I said before.... "Haters are gonna hate".... Lmao!
  11. I love all these people blowing this so far out of proportion.....I hope the Patriots win the Super Bowl..... Then everyone can say they cheated in that game too.... Haters are gonna hate...... Go Pats!
  12. Just wait till you boys see my new trailer! ...........The suspense grows............................................lol!
  13. Oh.... Christopher the paint I used on the truck is Alclad gloss black then several light coats of Testors multi glitter clear..... Then toped off with 2 part automotive urethane clear. Wanted to give the truck a little twist rather than just plain old gloss black that you see all the time.
  14. I forgot to mention a few key aftermarket parts that I used on this build like some of my others...... Plano model products for the oval mesh stainless screen that is in the front bumper as well as Rhino truck products...aluminum stacks... Ryan makes great looking stacks!
  15. Thanks for the kind words guys!...Jim... the front axle in this kit is a one piece design...the spindles are molded right on the axle, like the AMT kits are. here is a few picks of how I modified mine to be functional. I cut the spindles off the axle.....then used some small Evergreen styrene tubing and glued one to each end of the axle....then the others to the back side of the spindles, then put a pin down through the center so it will swivel. I then cut some small sq. styrene rod and 45 deg. cut , then glued that to the backing plate. Then glued two small pieces of the small styrene tube to the ends of that for the tie rod to connect to. Very simple......and does not take away from the looks of the kit parts.
  16. Thanks guys..... I did a few things different with the kit. Its to bad it doesnt have an engine, but I did modify the front axle and made it steerable
  17. Here's a few pics of my Volvo VN 780 that is going to be for my TSR Racing Hauler
  18. Sorry....not trying to be sneaky Clayton.........I don't want everybody knowing and seeing everything I'm bringing to the show before hand. lol!
  19. Hey Stan....I've been working on some truck builds getting ready for some upcoming shows. I will be holding off from posting any photos or build logs until after the shows. Don't want to let the cat out of the bag yet......so to speak
  20. Go Patriots! :lol:
  21. Best part about the whole thing JT....a small roll of each will be enough for 100 trucks! lol
  22. Hey guys, here's a neat idea that I did quite awhile ago to my trailer builds....I use 3M Brand reflective tape cut into strips....peel the backing off and stick them on...simple idea and adds realism to your builds ..... here it is applied to my lowboy build from awhile ago.
  23. Hey Lou........I received the oil tank today ......I think it will work perfect in my Joey Saldana build! I will send you some pics once I get the engine in it and all plumbed. Thank you again.
