  1. Thanks Jim!! Thanks Warren. I have found that Tamiya tape works best, but I do have trouble with residue. Lacquer paint also seems to help. A thin fast drying coat as opposed to the slow drying seeping enamel. Thanks Gary!! Thanks Ken!! Thanks Tommy. As soon as I finish the trailer, I think that the fleet will be done, at least for now. Thanks Chuck!! That is a B-67 that actually resides at the Transportation Museum not very far from where I live. I have several pictures of it. It was the inspiration truck for this build, especially the air starter tank. Thanks David!! Thanks Scott! Thanks Carl!! Thanks!! Thanks Chris!!
  2. I finally took time to finish this one. AITM resin cab, glue bomb AMT R-model frame, resin rear wheels and tires from AITM, pewter rear axle from AITM, resin tanks from AITM.

  8. That is a real beauty! Excellent work!
  9. Looks awesome! I like the colors! This one really came out great! Excellent work!
  10. You are truly a craftsman!! I enjoyed watching this one come together! It is by far the best Dodge cabover that I have ever seen built! As Charles said, the details and weathering is perfect! It looks real! Excellent work!
  11. Actually, I wasn’t aware that the 4-53 was available in these. Do you have any reference material on these trucks with a Detroit or even an engine compartment picture? I have 4-53 references, just not in one of these, at least not that I remember.?
  12. Beautiful fire truck! Excellent work!
  13. You are really turning them out! Excellent work!! Looks great!!
  14. Beautiful build as always Ken!!
  15. I like that blue and yellow together!! This thing is looking great!!
  16. Looking good!! I've always used a pocket screwdriver for doing the heat swadge. I was able to do it as a kid on the original kit, so I'm sure that you won't have a problem.
  17. Another nice job at capturing the look of the 1:1. Nice work!!
