No, I got those from a vendor at one of our local shows a couple years back, I think it adds a nice touch to go along with the license plates.

37 Ford pickup chopped & dropped

Another beauty off of your bench! You sir have got ‘ the touch’ , everything you show us has all the right style cues and clean subtle well thought out details. Well done ! -
Ace Auto GMC Plow Truck

That’s awesome, spent some time living in Utica as a kid. -
Thanks for the positive comments guys, much appreciated. in no particular order.. the A/C, was in the kit, so it went on, lol. the decals, I decided to clear over them to help keep them on cause they were kinda sketchy. building quick, once all the bits are painted and detailed, they fall together fast. I usually get an hour or two a night, so a lot gets done on oob stuff.

How do I get anything done???
tbill replied to tbill's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Well, it’s been about 2 weeks since I cleaned the bench, and I finished up the 71 duster today, and the bench is still pretty clean...... -
Can’t find the jaw drop emoji, so just insert it here....., fabulous build!
-
Truth be told, I figured you’d carry whatever paint scheme you came up with onto the floor pan, and doing that just screams for a chrome chassis, and depending on what the paint scheme is, chassis may need a few gold plated parts as well....?

Good looking mopar, and agreed, that rear pic looks awesome!
-
That came out great, way to save the kit .
-
Wow! Gorgeous colors, and that interior ......fagettaboutit........, beautiful job!
-
Finished this one up this morning, decals silvered on me, but other than that, happy with how it turned out, thanks for looking.
-
Thanks all, I wrapped this one up this morning, will be under glass soon. Thanks for looking in and following along.

Very cool project . And I think you already know the chassis needs to be chrome ?

Cool build ( no pun intended), love the pic in the snow! if I might suggest one more thing? Maybe a little rust trail down the doors from the mirror mounts, those always rotted out the doors around here. -
Autocar DK Dump and trailer
tbill replied to Warren D's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Making good progress, looks great so far. -
Looking good, this is going to be cool.

I hear ya, at first I thought this would fit in my display case, but once I get it on a ‘parking lot’ , it won’t fit.... hoping I can fab up a clear cover for the whole thing after it’s complete.

When the project dies. Or does it?
tbill replied to Jantrix's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I’m from the ‘ I will finish it eventually’ camp . Most builds I get done in a month, but I have a few stragglers. One kit took me 4 years to get finished up, and I recently finished another one that had been kicking around for 2 years or so. I keep the stragglers in eye sight, eventually the urge to work on them returns . -
AMT/Italeri reefer trailer
tbill replied to KJ790's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
You have a knack for building fantastic trailers, looking forward to seeing this one completed. What’s going to be dragging this old girl down the highway? -
That’s sharp! Looks pretty close to being finished as well.
-
Man, that’s looking great! I love that color!
-
Thanks guys. Tom, thanks for the offer, but at this point, I’m gonna run with it, I cleared it, and the whole decal silvered, so at least it’s uniform looking, lol. for those that asked, here is a pic of the paint I used for the interior, and a few more progress pics. thanks for looking in,

Looking good!
