I have been trying frantically but STS doesnt have what I need. Does anyone know of any other parts supplier that carries 379 conversion hoods? got a 378 with a 377 sleeper all painted and ready just cant locate a hood.

Another show stopper! cant wait to see whats next

Does anybody know of a company offering a resin 120" condo sleeper? Ive been through all the sites on my list and cant find 1. I have no problem scratchin one up just wondering if anyone still sells them

wow them bolivar boys do go everywhere, i thought they were exaggerating when they made the 20 mile trip up here

Very impressive

Amazing Tim! cant wait to see #2

I use the Testors Decal system...only when I need decals sloped, angled or semi circle.....I even stopped using their paper because for some reason no matter how I applied the sealer the color always ran. I ordered the decal system from Micro-Mark itll be here waiting for my next trip home. My view of the testors system..... could use a lot of improvement but thats just my opinion

Thanks a million Aaron, I just checked that out I will get a hold of my brother give him a list of stuff to order for me. Whew no more scratchin hoseloads lol

geez he could have sent a letter or email or something stating he changed names again lol, still under construction..wow a page on kits, maybe he is going to branch out and start sellin kits...hmmmmm least he is still around. Thanks a bunch Aaron

I'd love to see someone come out with some PPE, Airpacks, nozzles.the whole lot of parts. As for Fred's I was very satisfied with the products he offered, and I did have a few times where the service was under par. Most of the time I got confirmation right on the phone at time of order, few times it would take a few days and I would get an email stating the order was shipped, once I got an email confirmation and it didn't list all the parts I ordered. As many times as I ordered from him I would say 8 out of 10 times the service was great. Off the top of my head without looking at my paperwork I ordered from him at least 20 times, and 3 times I recieved spotty service but all in all I would keep going back, if he was only open. Josh

Aaron, I am working on 3 Trumpeter ALF's for buddies of mine from neighboring FD's. The one I want to "Deck out" is one I am building for my father who was a ff since I was a kid, so far Ive opened all the doors on the cab and body and while on the road I will detail the interior and such, I recently did one for our department but I used up what I had purchased from Fred's and I'd like to get a hold of some extras and stock up in case I never get the chance to in the future. Just stockin up on supplies to take onthe road with me.

Thanks Tim, Ill email him directly. Im takin kits with me in the truck for something to do on down time and just lining everything up so my next trip in I can get set. Happy New Years to all!

Does anyone know a good place to get details for fire trucks? I used to go through Fred's Custom Models but anytime I try to get his page it gives me that whole 404 no known page message. I need to find a company that still sells helmets and gear and some nozzles. Thanks, Josh

Found the link Tim, nice conversation. I usually listen to KDKA on weekends but slightly bad weather kept me from it the past few weeks. Good job I downloaded it!

Merry Christmas to you too Dave. I didn't have a problem with the name but your still here that is all that counts. Happy Holidays to everyone

Very nice work Tim

I buy on ebay, not home enough to sell anything.... Jdkustommodels I dont do much on there anymore unless im home which isnt very often

I wouldnt mind puttin a condo cab together either. Ill let ya know how the XL works and will get pics of it as well, still contemplating whether I should give it the Werner treatment or just fly by the seat of my pants.... either way itll be sometime after new years when I come back home

Has anyone bought conversion kits from MonkeyClawModels.com????? Just wondering if anyone has I plan on setting up with a Freightliner Classic XL kit from him sometime in the spring to make a model of the truck I run. Just wondering

Sheesh Tim I need to shop where you shop, all the shops around here that carry them nailed me for over 125. Good thing I still have them in the boxes and didnt try anything over the edge yet

BOB!!!!!!!! You think I wouldn't see that? In Carlisle gettin the truck worked on so I am at the terminal. Tell ya what you make it happen and do it right I won't mind you using my name on my computer. BTW Tracy down at Minihan has done lettering for me before. Oh and yea a cam. sweet then I can start throwin pics up here. See ya in a few days I'm due home next Friday. Oh since your on my comp go see Tim's site take a look at what that man can do!!!!!

Tim, Thank you I will stop by a few shops and see who can hook me up. Great help thank you very much, I'm sure he will **** when he sees it!

Hey guys, I'm Bob Josh's older brother, Im doing 2 things for the big guy. Im getting him a digital camera for xmas so he can show his work. But I also have a question, I am doing a truck for him but I cant let him know I am (by the time he sees this he will have it already) I have about 2 weeks before he comes in off the road and I am working on that chrome tanker trailer for the daycab Pete he made last month, now my question is can I throw decals on the tank and make the lines dissapear? Im not sure what to do could I spray with clear when im done or is there another way........ if even possible. Any help would be awesome. Thanks, Bob

My "wanting" of that cab is a few FD's in my area (just not my fd) have MR's and wanted models depicting their department so I will try to find one if not many. Thanks for all the help guys I appreciate it. Im hoping to hit many terminals with the net when Im runnin down the 4lanes to keep up with everything. Keep on Modelin!

Does anyone know of any companies offering the Mack MR cabs? I have checked just about everywhere and I can't come up with anything, just hoping to get lucky and find 1!!
