  1. Love the Vietnam Service ribbon in the grill.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. The one I'm looking for. I'm not 100% sure if it was molded in orange.
  5. You would not believe how much I paid for mine.
  6. Hi Pierre. I'm from Puerto Rico also (Caguas). Welcome to the forum. You will find all the help you'll need here, and then some more. This is a great forum. I see modified Japanese cars like your model here in Florida all the time.
  7. I was looking at it at Walmart but it looked too thick. I ended up buying a white Nylon thread. I have to paint it but I guess it will do.
  8. Thank you guys!
  9. I'm working on a 1/25 Peterbilt wrecker but it does not include the towing cable. What's a good "steel cable " for this scale?
  10. Thank you. That's what I'll do also.
  11. Specifically on trucks, do you guys assemble the chassis first or engine or other parts and THEN you paint it?
  12. Great tip Andy. The idea is to warm up the part enough so you can bend it a little and bring it back to the correct position. Then you can use some masking tape to force the part in the opposite direction for a few hours. I warm up my parts by waving them on a stove top, not too close. But the water method is safer.
  13. Check this one! http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=92381&hl=
  14. As far as I know, yes, they were all the same.
  15. In all sincerity. I like it a lot. Beautiful bus. Been thinking on buying one myself.
  16. They came in truck kits in the 1970s.
  17. Thank you so much Sean!!
  18. I'm still trying to find an image of the back part of the flier in my first post.
  19. Tom, look at what I just found on Ebay.
  20. This is more interesting than I thought. Thank you guys!!
  21. Let's see a picture of that box John. And, how did you guys find out about doing the kit for the company. Newspaper ad, modelers club, TV ads?
  22. Great info, Thank you!!
  23. These kits and many more were actually built and then photographed for the box covers. What happens to these trucks afterwards? Do they sell them or put on storage? Just wondering.
  24. Like your ideas too Roger. Thank you!
