The "wood" on the trailer looks great. May I ask how you did it. I have this trailer in red but the "wood" on mine does not look too good.

I searched this episode on You Tube and saw it. Really nice.

I won't let this baby go on recoveries Clayton. They would scratch it.

Minor update. Changed the tow cable and added some accessories.

Got it. Thanks Richard!

Excuse the newbie question. What do you mean by "orange peel"? Thanks.

Thank you!

Still working on final details but I can say it is finished. I want to thank Terry for helping me acquire this kit and also to Brinx (Mike) for providing me with a new set of decals as the originals were yellowing. And I also want to thank many of you who answered many of the questions I posted regarding this project before I started. There are some flaws but nothing major. I first saw this particular kit when it came out in the late 70s. My best friend at that time built it while I built a Mack DM 600. For my skill level I think I pulled it off acceptably good. It looks better in person, I'm not a good photographer. Enjoy. Angel

Sorry to hear this. Even sadder from a father. Just take one day at a time.

Same here.

Amazing how you can bring them back to "life". I love Before and After pictures. Thanks!! I did it myself to a Hot Wheels Steering Rig.

That's a neat idea. Thanks!!

I am in the final stage of a truck build and in the very last clear coat (second coat), the clear comes out yellowish, and part of the body is white (yellowish now). So I feel your pain too.

For $23 with free shipping I could not let it go.

Hi Sean: Check my post from a few weeks ago. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=92847&st=0&p=1247709

Hey, Jesus, I'm from Puerto Rico (Caguas) also. I'm in the States now.

One of my favorites. I have one too. Where did you get the two hole wheels?

I wait at least one week after painting to mask it off and never had that problem.

Are there going to be a long bed and short bed versions? 6 cylinder or 8? Or is it just one kit?

Love the Vietnam Service ribbon in the grill.

One of my favorites. When Ba Baa Black Sheep TV Series came out so many years ago, I remember I did one with folding wings and all. The box art of the kit was beautiful.

That's right. I painted it gold sometime after I took that first picture. The other picture is from a real truck. The base is left in chrome.
