Time for LUVin'! Retro Street Truck (OOB)
Goose1957 replied to Faust's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Yeah, I knew the differences in scale, I wasn't sure how big the engine bay is in the Luv. I know it would look smaller, maybe add a turbo setup to fill some of the empty space, lol. I just thought it would be an alternative for someone building one. I may have to get one and put one of my resin Cummins engines in my stash in it just to roll some coal, lol. Maybe cut it down to a BT-4 4 cylinder. Jeff -
Time for LUVin'! Retro Street Truck (OOB)

Would the v-6 from the Jeep Commando work? It is, after all, a Buick engine before they sold it, then bought it back again. I think that would look good in the Chevy Luv. Jeff -

Orphaned makes, European and Asian engines by FTB

Cool IH Scout engine. I can dig it. Love all your engines and the workshop diorama. Keep cranking them out. Jeff -
Here's my rendition of the AMT Toyota truck snap kit recently re-released. This was meant to be a slump buster project for me. I needed something simpler to do after getting stalled on other projects. As a snap kit, it is lacking in some detail, but is still a very nice kit to build. A few runs in the paint and the decals didn't want to settle down, even with setting solution. I just wanted an example of a popular truck from my youth. Thanks for looking. Jeff

"EMERGENCY" Squad 10

GMC Mason Dump
Goose1957 replied to Warren D's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Good looking dump truck. Looks like a factory job. I wish someone would make a kit like this in styrene, all in one box. There are so many trucks like this in the real world, I can't see why one of the bigger names couldn't do it. Add a trailer full of mowers and weed wackers and you would sell a million(OK, maybe not quite a million, but close, lol). I'd like to build one, just don't have the time to do all of the alterations and scratch building you did. Great job. Jeff -

Goose1957 replied to 1967RMP's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial

1977 International Scout
Goose1957 replied to crazyjim's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Great looking Scout. I like the sbc swap. Nice choice of red too. Funny, I thought about putting a cowl hood on my Scout when I was driving it around in high school. Just didn't have the money then. Great to see more Scout models, keep 'em coming. Jeff
