  1. Something tells me Revell USA might have some good news for us (big rigs) in the future!
  2. http://www.iespell.com/download.php Install it!
  3. Not you specifically, but in general, I would rather see the cost of plating go in to "molded-in" details. Alcald is more accurate than kit plating and there are many other chrome paints that are very good.
  4. You said a mouthful! Plating with Alcad 2 would give a more accurate finish anyway. Some just live to complain. BTW, nice trailer photo.
  5. It probably won't arrive on these shores for about a month. Truck Model World Magazine will have a review next issue. These Euro guys have the kit and a CD with actual photos of the actual trailer. https://ssl3.world4you.com/modelmakershop/product_info.php?info=p3151_TIMBER-TRAILER--1-24--Nr---3868-with-bonus-photo-CD.html&XTCsid=sjervm1t1hg8980537ddlci085
  6. The lack of visor is, I assume for the lack of full sunlight in the Alaskan winter!
  7. I like those Jamie. They appear to be 1/24th scale, just what I need for an American Italeri tractor. Do you include the tires?
  8. I was asking about wheels, not the tires. I have a couple of sets of the old Clint Freeman Hi-Flotation tires that are perfect for Super Single tires. Now that I think about it, Plaskit offers some nice wheels and Kit Form Services offer some nice wheels.
  9. Do they exist in a kit or does an aftermarket supplier have them?
  10. Now that's nice! That is one of the many improvements that Dave Natal has done to the original AITM items, clean them up and recast them in lighter, easier to work with resin. You definitely captured the spirit of the mid 1950s with that one! I am a reefer freak (not the smoking kind LOL!) and I love your rendition of the old ice bunker type reefer. Again, fantastic!
  11. Nice, how did you make the quilted interior walls in the sleepers.
  12. This would a good chance for you to post your desires for new construction equipment models to the model producers. Just by coincidences, Italeri has a request survey on their web site, http://www.italeri.com/news_scheda.asp?idNews=93
  13. I'm not sure if Roberts runs reefers, but the Great Dane would look good with this model.
  14. It's been a well know fact for years that the Italeri trailer is out of proportion. There is at least one extensive thread on that issue on this board.
  15. Some say they are rare in the US/Canadian markets, but I haven't had any issues finding them.
  16. This is your chance! http://www.italeri.c...a.asp?idNews=93 idea@italeri
  17. But it ain't around a hundred like you originally said. And there are probably cheaper prices to be found.
  18. Well Italeri has an opinion survey currently on their web site. Make your opinion known.
  19. Could this be of some use? http://www.italeri.com/scheda.asp?idProdotto=2015
  20. Tower Hobby $69.99 http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXACNP&P=W
