  1. Thanks Carl!! Thanks Lee!! Thanks Mark!! Yes sir it has what is often referred to as “weed burner” exhaust. It has dual mufflers underneath with turn downs.
  2. You are truly a Craftsman! I like the Cummins! Excellent work!
  3. Your work never ceases to amaze me! It looks incredible!
  4. Thank you as well, and it looks we’re trading again.?
  5. Have made a little progress over the past few weeks.
  6. Thanks Chuck! And thanks for digging this one back up!
  7. Looks great! Where did you get the chain and sprockets? I recently put a winch on my Bullnose Kenworth race truck hauler. I used a chain and sprockets from a toy motorcycle, but wasn’t 100% happy with the results. Yours looks great!
  8. Beautiful build! Very clean! Excellent work!
  9. This is what I have thought from the beginning. I had never looked up sneakers until this thread. They must be having a clearance sale. They are only $100,000 for a pair of sneakers. ?
  10. There’s something up with these type of sellers in Japan. I’ve noticed the same thing with guitars as well. When you check out this store just about everything is over $1000, yet they have sold over 1500 items in the past year. There’s more to the story than just simply being clueless about pricing. Maybe if Paul Harvey was still alive, he could tell us the rest of the story.
  11. My last order from Auslowe was several years ago. It took 3 weeks to process and then I got a notice that my order was shipped. Then it too 3 weeks to arrive after shipping. The total time was 6 weeks. I wouldn’t be afraid to order again from them at all.
  12. Looks awesome! This may end up being the best Movin On model ever.
  13. Thanks Bill! Thanks! I agree that it needs an exterior post trailer. I hope that one day room will allow it.
  14. I've seen quite a few of these in the 1:1 world. You did a great job on this one!! It looks great!!
  15. Man that is Awesome! You really captured the look of the truck and Cooter!! Excellent work! I always enjoy seeing your builds!
  16. The “Cover Max” color max worked great although it seems to not be available anymore. Gloss Color Max doesn’t cover very well in my experience. I would recommend using the matt finish, which covers much better and then a final coat of gloss color or gloss clear. This truck was painted with Color Max (green color). It took so many coats to get it uniform, that it began to hide details. It also made the finish look thick.
  17. Thanks Bill!! Thanks Larry!! Thanks Andrew!! Thanks JC!! Thanks Justin! I like building the old working trucks that I used to see on the road. Thanks Scott!! Thanks Steve!! My process is usually trial and error, often heavy on the error, but I was pretty happy with how this one turned out. Thanks Mark! Natural lighting goes a long way. Thanks Blake!! Thanks Trevor!! I always have an internal battle; should I leave it shiny or weather it a bit. Thanks Brian!! Thanks Tommy! I don’t know if I have perfected anything, but I am still learning. ?
  18. I like it! Nice work! Looks great!
