  1. Absolutely stunning.
  2. Lovely.
  3. X2
  4. To me it speaks of levelcrossing signals.
  5. This is the AMT display trailer kit repurposed.
  6. Next step Carl. The problem will be finding enough engines to fill this...
  7. That's like us calling all facial tissues Kleenex and all cameras Kodaks. Although whike Kleenex endures, Kodaks seem to have fallen by the wayside in favor of cameras.
  8. I saw a similar Reo at a show back in 2008 with a GMC 702 on the deck. Neat truck. I used that picture of the 702 as a reference when I scratchbuilt mine.
  9. Exotica at FTB, an Offenhauser 220 and a Continental TS325 gas turbine.
  10. Continental TS325 Gas turbine as used in the Howmet racing cars. 2 stage gas turbine, 2900cc/350 hp. This engine could reach 57,000 rpm. It is a gift from fellow member Jack Lira (Jack L).
  11. The dollies are done. the trailer will be able to display 6 engines.
  12. Nice. Where are the louvers from?
  13. Good to know, Ihave a 903 in the queue.
  14. Wow, that quite the collection. Very nice work. .
  15. It is for me. However I've been known to pay $50 for a 3D printed engine. Go figure.?
  16. Love the paint rack. Clever. No, brilliant!
  17. A lot of them are now under the same umbrella Round 2. You will find a variation in quality as there are old tools still in use as well as new kits. I find the Japanese kits like Tamiya and Europeans like Italeri and Heller are markedly better. It is difficult to discuss this without comparing. The big decision maker will be the subject you choose. Some companies are specialized and have only a certain type. Hope this helps. You will slso find a lot of aftermarket stuff to allow some creativity of your own.
  18. Made up a prototype for the dollies. The forklift can pick it up and place it inside the trailer, then one man can push it to the front. The dolly rides against the rails on the floor of the trailer.
  19. Here's the real McCoy.
  20. Hard to say, I think it is the 3 1n 1. Judging by the blurry photo on the box. We'll see when I get mine.
  21. The positive out of this is that now I know where my ChrisCraft engine comes from. ?
