  1. Looks good. Can't wait to see it with the trailer.
  2. It was to much trouble and wasn't turning out like I hoped, so this project is scrapped. Saving the frame for a resin conversion when I'm able to buy one. Funds are severely low for me at this time.
  3. Thanks. And you are right about that. I don't have a single space left to put another truck and trailer couple.
  4. Finally more progress on the Blue Mule. Just need a set of mirrors to go on it and it will be done.
  5. Thanks. And no not yet. I need an exhaust hose. I'm thinking a bendy straw might work. The breather tube is a straw.
  6. I want to add Trucker Al to the great traders list.
  7. Thanks. I remember seeing this style on the road as a kid. There's still a couple old trailers sitting around town. I plan on building a Roadway Road Boss single axle in the future.
  8. Yeah it was a leftover decal from something else. The Blue Mule decal is from Model Truckin. The Dodge decals are from there too. The Dodge is completed now in the under glass section.
  9. Calling this one finished. The cab doesn't tilt.
  10. Thanks I'm getting pretty close to being done with both of these.
  11. So more progress on both trucks. Getting pretty close to the finish line.
  12. Looks great! I love these old IH Transtars.
  13. Maybe make the blue darker?
  14. Got another project going. I'm doing a cab swap of a Mack R600 putting the cab on the AMT Western Star frame. The cab is the AMT kit not resin. I'm using the Mercury sleeper that was on the Western Star. I took out the Western Star engine and swapped in the Mack engine so the hood will fit. I will be using the Mack fuel tanks as well. I just got it painted.
  15. AITM sent something like that but it's got a blue tint to it. I use the plastic containers cupcakes you get from Walmart come in sometimes for my glass.
  16. You guys asked to see them so here's the frame the Dodge will go on. The Ford frame isn't quite ready enough yet.
  17. Thanks for the tip. What do you use for glass in your resin cabs?
  18. Post a WIP when you get it started. I can't get the weather to cooperate so I can get my Dodge painted. It's going to be Red and Black.
  19. This is going to be cool. I'll be watching.
  20. I know these cabs are really nice. I really like the Dodge cab.
  21. The Ford is going on the AMT Kenworth 123 cabover frame, and the Dodge is going on the AMT Freightliner cabover frame.
