You may not have built it. But you will have a nice model to display, or to rebuild your way. Be Well Gator -

'55 crew
gatorincebu replied to dieseldawg142's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Dan, I like your build here. You did a really nice job on the cab splice and resultant body work. I will be following this build thread for sure. Be Well Gator -
Pavel, I for one. Am glad to you re posted these photos. That is a great looking model. You did a really good job on the whole rig.I am going to have to see if the build thread is still available? Is the the Cattleman kit? The Daf 6X4 is one of my favorite European trucks. I have a couple in the stash to build. You said that there were no headlights ? I just went to my stash and pulled out both the DAF Cattleman truck and the DAF Dump truck. Neither kits has the headlight in the fenders. I like the way you added the headlights to your truck. And I may try that on one of my trucks. But most likely I will go with the lights in the bumper. And may possibly add a couple more to the bumper. Be Well Gator

Autocar DC9964B Dumper
gatorincebu replied to Superpeterbilt's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Terry, Are you going to do the pinstriping? As much as I like that look.I doubt I would ever try it myself. But those are some good looking trucks. Be Well Gator -
Pavel, Please tell Radomir, that I said Welcome to our Forum. And to remember that old saying "A picture is worth a thousamd words". That said. I do not think he will have a problem with people appreciating his models. From what I can see .he is a talented builder and his work looks quite good! Be Well Gator

1971 Ford F350 Dump
gatorincebu replied to Chuck Most's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Chuck, I like it a lot! Good job on the dump body. The paint job is spot on. And I think it would look good without the plow as well. Be Well Gator -
Ford Pickup Lowrider
gatorincebu replied to riverart's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Real nice looking truck! Lowriders are just as much a part of the custom car scene as any other type of build. And the lowriders go back at least to the 40's. My dislike is not for the cars but for the wheels that seem to be so popular these days. I don't really care for the look. And they ride really hard. That being said. I can still appreciate the work that goes into these cars/trucks. Be Well Gator -

World Record Semi Truck Jump
gatorincebu replied to Custom Hearse's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes it is very impressive to see that truck fly through the air then land hard on that ramp. As for the damage it sustained???? Most likely extensive. But them I doubt that they were even planning on driving it again, much less to the junk yard. I wonder what physical damage the driver sustained???? Be Well Gator -
Jurgen, thanks for you comments. yes The DAF dumpt truck kit has been out of production for quite some time now. Though the Frieghtliner with the same dump body has been re released and should be available. Though it is rather pricey. I do like that dumper! Cliff, Thanks for your comment glad you like em. Both models will be upgraded and repaired, ( moving damage) . The DAF has tires from Rick Mark. And they are quite heavy,As aresult the front axle keeps breaking. I will replace it with a metal axle from KFS. Tjhe International Will have the dump body modified. And I will most likely weather that truck as well. e the DAF is redone. I hope to get some construction site type photos of it Alain, Thank for your comment. Coming from you it means more to me, As I hold your work up there among those I aspire to. Once the DAF is redone I hope to get some good construction site type photos of it. Be Well Gator
