Beautiful!

Awesome work!

Nice!

Wow! I'd read about this but forgot about it. I'm only about 15 minutes up the road and really wanted to check it out. Thanks for posting.

Well done!

Very nice!

Congrats on retirement, and welcome back!

Nice work!

So I got started on my Fury Road Convoy car aka Elvis. I used red oxide primer to get the base color and now have to do the appropriate weathering. The pics are mock-ups. The only things glued is the chassis pan, which I weathered, and the radiator shell with the radiator. Oh, and the engine is assembled to this point.

Welcome to the forum Ken!

Very nice!

Thanks much Frank!

After digging deeper, I think these go by tractor tire and skip loader specs, which are tire width, then rim diameter. Making it 23.5" wide with a 25" rim.

Yes, I saw that, not quite sure what that means. But that tire is close to 4 feet tall, way more than 23.5". In my updated reply I figured that the 23.5 has to be the sidewall height, but I can't say for sure.

Thanks Les, I saw that article and its still confusing. The pic below shows the tire that I'm looking to size. If what it shows, and what I've read previously is true, then the diameter of the there should be 23.5", and the width should be 25. However looking at the pic its clear to see that the width is not greater than the height. Thus my confusion. After thinking about the size, I realize that the 23.5 has to be the height of the sidewall, because these tires are massive, but the article doesn't say that.

This is for an off road loader. I keep seeing that the first number should be the tire height and second the rim size, but that can't be true. I'm researching a Pettibone Cary-lift. Thanks.

Beautiful work!

Beautiful build man!

That might make a nice community build subject!

Glad you took the time to take care of yourself. I wish you well.

I almost exclusively use primer because the few times I've tried to paint w/o it, I don't like the result 90% of the time.

I bought one but haven't used it in a practical sense. Did a couple of test prints but I need to create a buck for the project. The one I had couldn't take the heat.
