  1. Will trade this MPC Mack hood for the AMT Mack hood.
  2. Up for trade is this MPC Mack RS600 hood. It is brand new, never been painted. I'm looking for. A 5th wheel for this same kit all 5 pieces A set of dollies landing gear for and van trailer from AMT or open to other trades. Hood in pics is the hood you will receive.
  3. Yeah I wouldn't want to either. I appreciate your offer though
  4. I just need the body and the other few parts. I hate to waste a whole kit. I'm building a wrecked Charger. But if you want to get rid of just the body and a few parts I do have things to trade.
  5. I'm looking for a Revell 68 or 69 Charger body. Maybe a hood too. It can be painted and be a glue bomb even just as long as it's not all busted up and broken. I need the front and rear suspension for this kit too.
  6. I'm looking for a decal sheet for a AMT Chevy Bison. I would also like a non Coca-Cola decal sheet for the AMT GMC General.
  7. Oh ok. I've talked to AITM on Facebook recently and asked them for an old Mack cab. They said they do have the one I want.
  8. They are back up and running on Facebook.
  9. Yeah I ordered a lot from Dave. I think the second guy to run it was a guy named Doug, I ordered some from him too. I follow them now on Facebook. I actually scratch built the two side panels for my trailer last night out of evergreen. I'll check those other sites out too. Thanks.
  10. Hey thanks. He has a couple of the things I'm looking for.
  11. I am looking for parts for 3 trailers. I need 3 sets of complete suspension for the AMT van trailers. I need the axles, springs, mounts, all of the suspension for 3 trailers. I also need 4 sets of dollies landing gear. I need both of the side panels for the exterior post van trailers and the doors. Plus 3 king pins and one coupling plate.
  12. Does anyone know what's going on with ModelTruckin? I sent them a message and ordered some decals two weeks ago and still haven't heard anything back.
  13. Thanks for all of the nice comments guts. Her she is hooked to the trailer.
  14. As I said on my Diamond Reo COE there would be a Marmon coming soon. Well here it is, I just finished it. It's on a K123 AMT frame I used everything from the K123 frame to make it look right. The decals are Kingsway decals from Jerry at Modeltruckin. There is a completed matching trailer that will go with this truck. I will take a couple more pics of it with the trailer later and post them. Please enjoy my Marmon.
  15. Thanks for all of the comments guys. Got a Marmon cabover coming soon too.
  16. This Diamond Reo shines better than she did before. Ok sorry about that old song reference. What we have here is a resin Diamond Reo cabover. Probably not gonna see many of these with the closing of Keystone's. As you can see it's three different colors. The blue is Testors Star Spangled Blue, the gray is actually a fluke in where the tape was wider than I thought so the primer stripe was born. The brown is Tamiya dark earth. The frame engine and wheels are from a GMC Astro 95. The tanks are from an Italeri Australian Western Star.
  17. I'll be watching. Looks awesome so far.
  18. Update. Almost finished with this one. I don't know what an air cleaner would look like for it.
  19. Being built alongside my Dodge, and several other resin trucks like A Marmon cabover, and a Diamond Reo cabover, is this Hayes. This one is supposed to look like an old retired truck. It's been through a lot and even had a door replaced at some point it It's life. The chassis is from an AMT Road Boss, the rims and tires are from a GMC Astro kit. It's not easy to see in the pics but I did make them look rusty.
  20. Some more progress. Getting close to finishing it. I used plastic from mail envelopes for the glass.
  21. Yeah I thought I had the wrong numbers on it. I have one that's a sleeper cab I finished a couple years ago.
  22. This is a better pic of the place in the cab.
  23. Got this little daycab Dodge in a trade. It was just the cab but it was in pretty good shape. I got a lot of great random parts with it. There's a place right on the roof that just won't sand smooth or fill with putty and look right so it's staying I guess. I used a FLD interior tub. Had to butcher it good to make it fit but it's working now. The frame (I think) is from a 359 California Hauler. I've shortened it it was already shortened once. And it's going to get shortened again. The engine is from a junked Titan 90. The rims are from my stash. Just random wheels. I've got to get glass for it.
  24. You guys are right about Krylon too. It's just as bad if not worse than Rustoleum. It say at the top of every can. No drips, no runs, no errors. But that's all lies from them. I've got one can of Krylon that is the worst can of paint I've ever seen. It runs like water and if it does bond to anything in some miracle it's a very thin coat. And if I spray back over it with the SAME can of paint, it wrinkles up every time.
