  1. I think the truck likes the grille treatment, it looks as though it's smiling this is coming along great, that deck platform looks terrific.
  2. found these on the local craigslist, mack, astro, cali-hauler and reo are un- started/complete. the movin on kit is complete, but has a bad paint job [in the pond] and somewhat assembled motor. IH is a train wreck, but salvable I think. ford p/u was part of the package, still in bags inside.
  3. what an amazing job, as said, stunning. wonderful looking model, just can't say enough about it.
  4. the SD and the IH are out there, but can be expensive. the DD, the KW, 352 and titan can be had reasonable, the astro 95 is hit or miss price-wise, some cheap, some expensive, depends on how you find them. cheapest options are the KW K-123, Pete 352, Freightliner DD, and Chevy Titan 90, all are around the $35 mark as re-issues, all the other COE's can get expensive as it's been awhile since they have been issued. [just my experience]
  5. fantastic job, looks beautiful.
  6. my son happened to be at HL last week, said they added some new stock and the hauler was in the new stuff. it's good to have a second shopper
  7. that looks great! good looking rig man, nice job!
  8. wow, I feel sorry for the people that miss out on the trucks, rigs, large scale, dio's etc. many of the models aren't my cup of tea, but I can sure appreciate what it takes to build them, and I learn a lot of stuff browsing thru things. only downside I have discovered, is it makes me buy more kits
  9. got this stuff over the past week or so and this today, . you guys have scored some sweet stuff this week! my favorite line.....'I was left unsupervised, this is what happens' , about fell outta my chair when I read that!
  10. that is beautiful! terrific job on a huge project
  11. keep looking, I have 2 of the trailer kits, one I paid too much for, the other I got for 'cheap', they are out there, just gotta be patient and keep looking.
  12. well done, looks great.
  13. I go often, my son stopped the other day and got me the ford race car hauler [new edition to the normal stock], and he said the isle was destroyed as they were 're stocking', I need to make a personal appearance and see whats new.
  14. no pic's, but past few days I have gotten the ROG KW dump truck, monogram 66 chevelle street rat, the ford race car hauler, and have two 77 chevy plow trucks and a 1/12th foose 69 Camaro coming in the mail, and picked up a jungle jim vega funny car and a 68 mustang 2n1 kit today.
  15. thanks guys. have made more progress on this, hope to have some new pic's up tomorrow. kind of getting tired of looking at orange parts, lol.
  16. beautiful job so far, great details, this is awesome!
  17. boy that looks good! I am loving this truck!
  18. as said, what's to not be happy with? looks fantastic, well done!
  19. that is too cool! I had one year years ago, black with red interior. not sure if they all had it, but mine had a chrome molding that followed the top edge of the rear quarter panel, started at the 'curve' by the rear quarter window and ended at the tail lamp extension. great looking model!
  20. nothing new really, remember the Toyota nova? Isuzu impulse/geo storm, Toyota/prism, Isuzu troopers could be had with GM 2.8 v-6's back in the day. there has been a lot of 'label' sharing over the years.
  21. looks great JT, another killer build for the fleet. i must say though, that one woulda really looked good in orange
