  1. Thanks for all the replies and thanks for the tip highway. After thinking it over I have decided to rebuild all of them again. It will be one big project. The pete will have to go back down to the frame since the sleeper is loose and other issues. If the paint is damaged to bad I'll just redo the whole thing as a new kit. I'll post some photo's as I go it's just one big WIP right. Thanks again Earl God Bless
  2. Yes this to me is a disaster as far as models go. My Grand-daughter lives with us and her little kitten was over for a visit. Due to go home this weekend. This happened Wednesday night. Well the kitten got in my model room,on my shelf and knocked the Pete off the shelf. However when I made my statements about the cat leaving right then. My wife and grand-daughter started moving like EMTs on the crash seen. And the cat was saved And for the cats safety NO MORE VISITS ALLOWED. My grand-daughter is 13,she understands,and is also mad with the cat. Will I rebuild them? Don't know. The kits were a mix of a few that I have built over the years.Oldest one was a 57 Chevy detailed and built 14 years ago. It looked like it was built yesterday. Most were detailed,but o-well when I thought about it,really is just material things. And life go's on. This is the loss.The bikes are not a complete loss they will be fixed.
  3. That came out nice,looking forward to more photos. Any WIP photos? Earl
  4. What color is that? I'm not digging it for the body. After you candy it,it may look better. I've seen a lot of your builds and I know you can make it right. Earl
  5. This is a must have truck for most of us. For anyone who can afford it,maybe they can buy some extras just to sell to those outside the U.S.A. That way they want have to go to e-bay and pay twice the price.
  6. Do you have a link to the site? This is a cool build.
  7. My prayers are with both of you. Earl Miller God Bless
  8. That is a clean build. There is a real mustang down the road from my house that has a color that looks a lot like yours. Thanks for showing it off. God Bless
  9. This will be a nation wide contest. Anyone that needs to cheat to win shouldn't enter anyway. CHEATING = Photos,Someone helping you build it. Buddies on the panel.You get the idea. It is a contest of building skills. Yours against everyone else's. There are guys oh here that machine there own parts.Thats an upper hand most of us don't have.[NOT-COMPLAINING] Thats where your skills will be pushed to the limit,to level the playing field with those guys. My focus is that I will choose my build and build it better than any thing I've built before. If I win,it will be a BIG SHOCK The enjoyment of it will be that I'll improved my building skills. Earl Miller God Bless
  10. Looks like it came out very nice
  11. Must have been a problem I can see them now. And it is a good build.
  12. I just checked mine and everything worked.
  13. I can't get the photos to show up. How do you see the photos,when the box with an x is on the screen?
  14. Hello Every one I need photos,photo links to some of you with the detailed engines. Cat,Detroit,Cummins I have not built anything lately and I'm looking for a boost,this will help me get back to building. I have a custom KW that I'm messing with,building as a show truck. I would like to put a lot of detail into it. Thanks for any help. God Bless
  15. Thats great Merry Christmas God Bless
  16. Yea I have thought about a kit like this. Yours is a mess and if you get that straighted out just to get the basics the rest will be easy. If it was mine I would bring that roof down. The real photo looks like a baby double deck bus. Keep us posted and good luck with the build. God Bless
  17. These are some great looking rigs. I like the big Ford with the tank. Keep us posted.
  18. I went to Johnny's sight. If you want good parts at a real good price,he's the man to go to.
  19. Yes Davin Send the photos. Thanks Earl
  20. This is coming along nicely. You can buy a plastic container-shoe box size to put your bodies in for about a dollar. They work great for cleaning old paint. Earl God Bless
  21. Hello Andy I read where you just joined the forum WELCOME glad to have you here. I see you are already giving build tips out,the shifter looks good. As for the foil I haven't had much luck with getting it smooth a good rubbing works from what I have read about it. Earl God Bless
