    This engine is great. The 6-71 was made in many configurations. This one can be built with the blower on the left or on the right. The exhaust can be built either left or right. It comes with a road tractor and an industrial oil pan. Here's the pictures: IMG_1904 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1905 by Brian Smith, on Flickr IMG_1906 by Brian Smith, on Flickr

    I just had my first experience with GW Trucks. Never having seen any of his products in person and having never dealt with him I was a little hesitant to order. Gary is old school so there is no website or Paypal, You will need to email him for a list of products and check with him for availability and it's money order or check which is fine (I like old school). I emailed Gary and he responded very quickly. I mailed him a check for a 6-71 Detroit engine and it arrived surprisingly fast. I wasn't expecting junk, but I was even more pleasantly surprised by the excellent quality. It is by far the best 6-71 resin engine that I've seen in person. I hope to be buying more items from Gary soon, he's great to deal with and has great products. I thought that I would share my experience in case someone was considering placing an order but wasn't sure.

    Thanks Guys!! I finished the interior today. It is about 90% scratch built I saved all of the interior pieces that came with the conversion for a Road Commander project. The instrument cluster and defrost vents were cut out of an AMT K123 dash, the Speedo-graph was cut from an Ertl 4200 IH dash, the fan is from Double Take, a few items from the parts box and a lot of stryrene.

    Wow!!! Oh, I meant to say WOW!!! Very Impressive!! I wish that I could say that it makes me feel young though. I shake and can't see like I used to, maybe I'm getting old. Keep up the incredible work!!

    That is one sharp looking Freightliner! Very nice work!! I really like the color!!

    This thing is awesome!! I like the twin stacks with the Detroit. I really like the Holmes recovery bed. I've wanted to build one of those wrecker beds. I missed out on The last release of the KFS kit, and I sold the one I had about 10 years ago when I stopped building for a few years. This is one top notch build!!
