  2. I've never built one of these kits. I'm looking forward to seeing more!
  3. This one is coming together very nicely!!
  4. I like old iron! Nice build!!
  5. I'm just checking in for August. I have not touched the Mack since June. It has been a very busy summer. I hope to catch up soon and get back to finishing this thing. I'm still in the contest for now.
  6. You're right about the shorty bumper. Also, with the bumper pushed against the tire (in the case of a collision with a deer or other animal) the steering was greatly hindered. I think that this might be why GMC used plastic bumper extensions to make a full bumper on some of their trucks. Some of the very small shorty bumpers were used to save on weight also.
  7. Very nice looking Autocar!! Great work as usual!!
  8. Very nice build!! I like the short bumper!!

  11. Great looking Autocar!! I'm glad it's lasted and you were able to keep it. Great work!! My first ride was in a 7400 White. I was probably 8 or 9, so they are kind of special to me too.
  12. I have used metal iron on studs from Michaels or Hobby Lobby. This truck is looking great!!
  13. Congratulations on your beautiful daughter! When my oldest son was born 11 1/2 years ago, I gave up model building for a while (too many irons in the fire) and didn't start back until a couple of years ago. Glad to be back to building though. You've got a great start on a great project!
  14. Cool project! Great start!!!
  15. Cool project! Great work so far! Man you work fast!
  16. Thanks Ben! I had not opened mine and wasn't going to yet, but it turned out to be okay.
