  1. Hi Jeff. Thank you for posting your progress in this project and your pictures. I enjoyed it very much. I like your Mack a lot. I built this kit (the Mack DM 600) as a teenager over 30 years ago and I did not like it one bit back then. When I opened the box (in late 70s) I noticed the cab was offset and that was a disappointment for me as I had never seen a truck like this. But in the box art you don't notice that. I hated the truck. So I worked on it anyway but after a few weeks I ended up cutting the back part of the truck and made a wooden box to replicate a trailer and put the rear part of the truck on the wood box and I had a trailer. The cab and all the front part went to the trash can. Fast forward to last year: I bought the reissue kit with a trailer and it is my very best favorite truck right now. Life's ironies! Angel
  2. So every state may have different regulations. Then I think anywhere I put them stickers will be correct. I also wondered about those stickers on the sides. I did not know they were fuel taxes. Can those fuel tax stickers go on the windshield also? Thank you guys!!
  3. I like to work on truck model kits (big rigs from the 70s and 80s) but when it comes to put the license plates decals, I don't know exactly where to put them (front, back of truck, back of cab??) or how many to use. These kits come with several of these decals, in different colors, different States, etc. What is the correct way to use them in the real world? I've seen trucks with several different plates in the front bumper. And I've seen others with nothing in the back of the truck.
  4. I just want to ask you where did you buy the clear cover you put over your trucks? I like them a lot. Thanks! Angel
