I'd have to add any of the vertical take off planes, Ryan x3, Convair xfy 1 'pogo' , etc and they had models of these aircraft! greg

Here is the 'Huskie" at the USAF museum

My choices would a Mack B model, White COE and a GMC cracker box as retro trucks. To have these done as models with details not included in cast replicas. In my specialty of models would be a generic fire cab ala TCM ( truck cab manufactures) fire cab with no name blank body shell and various add- ons to make manufactures plated cabs. greg

Very nice job and great gift idea, just have to add my two cents: side windows and windshield wiper clean area on windshield. Happy Holidays greg

One name: A.J.Foyt greg

Who will be the first to wire it up and make em work greg

Also Monogram's 'Rommel's Rod' greg

Thanks for the info, Never bought that version of the kit, They almost look like scale art deco salt and pepper shakers greg

What did you use or make them? greg

Nice album of fire trucks greg

Nice job, What are the loads on the rear antennas? greg

Don't get mixed up with NBC putting model rocket engines in pick up tanks when they ran an expose on GM pickups with 'exploding' gas tanks. greg

Hope he doesn't have a radio in the car, My recollection there was a suppression system like Corvettes, greg

In another thread (Corvair engine air duct) the discussion went about the ways AMT attempted to cut costs near its end in Michigan. The American LaFrance fire trucks kits were a good example of the attempt to cut cost by eliminating the clear yellow and red trees and dechroming the kits. They placed those parts on the chrome tree. They even shot the ladder in the Ladder Chief in white plastic, Chrome parts from original release and white plastic from mid 70's /80's releases. greg

Now way back, I rear ended a Pinto with my Dodge Ramcharger sliding on ice, When I hit the Pinto I was expecting the worst of explosion and fire between the two cars, I remember that big rear window shattering to a million pieces. pushed the pinto into a car in front of him that was stopped to make a left turn, so my insurance paid for two car repairs, In the end the Pinto driver got paid for personal injury from my insurance. He took the money and didn't pay his ambulance bill, so I let the ambulance company know about that and he went straight to collection.

YEAH! It's a fire truck, Nice job, greg PS: by the way 'Scale Firehouse' web site is down right now, but Chris is working on it

Now that would have caught Robert Mitchum!

Nice work. great build greg

Congrats on a fine build, I am glad I got stuck in fire apparatus, construction equipment would have been my next hurdle, thank God for the AMT D8 cat to put a stop to that. Always wanted to do a Gradall XL4100 excavator. greg

I saw both movies, I am not a movie goer, last seen movie prior to last week= "Top Gun." I enjoyed both movies. Can't believe you Quaker Commonwealther didn't support a movie about your fellow Pittsburgh icon. Suggest you read the original "Esquire" article. greg

Fantastic job, Curiosity has this cat wondering what is on the lowboy back in the distance on some of your shots? Isn't that a grader already? greg

Great as usual.

I have a Dallas cheerleaders van from Revell greg

I will add, Hogan's hero jeep and the monkee mobil.

Went and saw the movie, It was enjoyable, I had a private screening as I was the only person in the theater and being a 'golden ager' and a matinee cost a whole 7 dollars. Recommended must see. greg
