First off I want to say how much I like the shop dio! It looks pretty good to me. As for the stretched frame. I liked it long. But then I like the kit length as well. But you are doing a good job on this one thus far. Be Well Gator

This one is looking good! And like JT said" Just enough work on the underside to be convincing." Hope you get the decals on with no further problems. Be Well Gator

I like it thus far! And I agree about a well kept but worked hard truck. Be Well Gator

That one is looking better all the time. Interesting and eye catching color combo. I will have to try that combination! Be Well Gator

Jesus, one option for you to consider.Would be to use the suspension from the AMT lowboy kit.Either as it is or cut down to two axles. Another option would be to get a trailer suspension from Either Gary Wallace, Or Jamie at Moluminum. And for more ideas check out the Dutch model club website for all the back how to articles for trucks and trailers. moluminum.com I do not have the contact info for Gary.Maybe someone will share that with you Be Well Gator

Looking really good now Alain! Be Well Gator

Chuck, That truck looks good with the gravel bucket ! Nice job on both. Be Well Gator

Pat ,. Nice job on the motor and lift frame! A great addition to the background setting. Be Well Gator

Sam, I thought that might be what you used. i have some of that .I also have some other mesh I got from a craft outlet. have not used it as of yet. But there is enough on a roll to last forever and a day ! lol Either way what you used looks really good. Be Well Gator

Now that is just too cool ! About the only thing I can think of that might be missing. Would be a CB antenna? But over all your build is really cool and accurate on the timeline. Not going to comment on the politics of the era! Be Well Gator

Now that looks really good ! I know you had a problem with the decals. You did a really good job on fixing that. Be Well Gator

Hmmmmm! Not bad !! lol looks good. i do like the colors. They are a little bit different. What motor did you put in it? Be Well Gator

Sam, That headache rack looks to be spot on ! I like it. What did you use for the screen? I know that there are several options available for that look. Be Well Gator

X's 3 !! Great job on the whole thing.Love the mural, the bumper stickers really are right on. The flocked interior, the posters on the wall. You have really captured the feeling of being back in time. Be Well Gator

Very nicely done! Really nice smooth paint job. Be Well Gator

Now that looks really good ! I like the shortened rear fenders. You did a really fine job building this one. Be Well Gator

Clayton, Good for you ! Back at the bench. You've had a major life altering event in your life ( the birth of your son ). Your model groove will come back, just give it time and don't push it. I hope you can finish this for the contest. But remember the most important thing, this is a hobby. Don't go stressin over a contest and trophies. Enjoy your new role in life as a Dad !! Be Well Gator

Kostas, I am glad to see you are working on this project again. I really like your headache rack/toolbox. I may do one like it. I hope life has gotten better for you ( job). Back when I was down and ou because of the economy.I always thought to myself. "No matter how bad things got for me. There would always be someone who was worse off than me ! " You have a family and a good hobby. Things will always get better! Be Well Gator

That could prove to be interesting ! Note they do not mention much in the way of prizes for the winners ???? Be Well Gator

Hmmmmm! You now have my attention , I have been thinking about getting one of those cabs for sometime. I will be following this closely. Be Well Gator
