  1. I'm still waiting for the motivation bug to bite again. Maybe this month will bear some progress.
  2. My friend,... You've been busy. Awesome work. This will be a build for the books man. That ripper looks great.
  3. That's right. Well, I kinda does but doesnt. What I do, how I get paid, the lighter the truck, the more make. Obviously the heavier, the less. But still, when your a company driver, it doesn't much matter. Sometimes you can lucky and find a smaller company, with a cool owner that'll take care of you. I kinda had that. I took care of the truck, he let me have creative freedom with it and his money. But I had to run "creative". I was blinded by the chrome for years, then I put the sunglasses on.
  4. Right on brother. Good luck with everything. I haven't seen very many FLs in Knights fleet. Mainly Volvos and Prostars. The reefer side has those and Petes. I've been seeing the new 579 pete in red and grey colors for them.
  5. Yes, those Bridgestone drives are very nice. I bought 12 for my 367 Peterbilt build and a bunch of other stuff.
  6. You've done it again Kurt. The remastered 255s look great. I'm gonna be ordering more of them when I start on my project. Thanks man.
  7. Lookin great man. This will be just awesome when you get her done.
  8. This time around. Harrys avatar is, Harry Dean Stanton.
  9. Oh boy, that's perfect. I get directions from dispatch sometimes that say head north on such and such road for 26 miles, then turn left at the big white rock, then it's another 8 miles to the pit, can't miss it.
  10. No problem man, glad to.help. Hope i wasn't pushy with the suggestions. I'm really diggin it man. It looks just right. There's a couple runnin around down here in the south west, So Cal and Arizona that look just like it. They're pulling drop decks.
  11. I haven't done much searching. But where I have looked, I'm having a hard time finding a bright enough yellow to match this. I have the green, almost a spot on match. Can anyone suggest a color and/or brand? I was thinkin Testors Chrome Yellow, I haven't looked at it yet with my own eyes.
  12. Can't wait Tom. I'm sure this will be every bow tie lovers dream when it's done.
  13. It looks like you need adjust the rear tires. The Revell wheels can be a bit tricky sometimes. The tire goes over the lip. I think drilling the holes larger really makes these kit wheels look 10 times better.
  14. Looks cool man. These are cool kits, many possiblities, they just need a visor. You did a fine fine job.
  15. This was the sunrise yesterday, coming into the Phoenix area. From where I'm sittin. A few minutes earlier out the left window.
  16. I love it. Killer stance. That color is poppin outside. I really like this. Great job man.
  17. Yep, I agree about Moebius makin their rims in 24s. That would be really cool. I think the only AMT wheels I'll use anymore are the FL COE and the CA Hauler. The other kits benefit very much with the Moebius set. I need a couple dozen more. I won't ever use Revell wheels and tires anymore. I really like how your Volvo came out, I really need to get a couple. I think I'll use a few of the AMT and Revell rims and tires in my truck shop dio I'm gonna be startin soon.
  18. AMT Kenworth T600 or you can use the Cane version. It's out of production, has been for awhile. You can ahold of one fairly easy, a bit pricey for 1/25.
  19. Too cool man. This combo looks great. I like how you switched out the kit wheels out on the truck. This is a good lookin combo. Well done man. Both look great
  20. Just submitted my entry online. I had to resize my pics, that took some time since I've never done it before.
  21. Very nice man. If offered this up as a kit as its sittin in your pics, I'd buy a few of them. You make some nice trailers man. I really like the one I have already. This will be a very nice combo.
  22. Awesome work JT. Very nice makin the tandem slide. If Schneider's equipment looked this good, and they paid better, I would've stayed there. Now I'm really anxious to see what truck your gonna hook it up to.
  23. Thanks Dennis. I'm finally gonna give this a go. I've always wanted a shop dio. That and maybe this will give the motivation to start my hay field dio with my hay haulers and cattle pots.
