Carolina Autocar DC 100
DRIPTROIT 71 replied to DRIPTROIT 71's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks Ken!! Thanks Jim!! Thanks Mathias!! Thanks Mario!! I have collected so many left over parts over the years from resin conversions, I thought that I would try to keep from parting out another kit on this one. Thanks Chris!! Thanks Warren!! You know that I like Old School! Thanks Blake!! Thanks Steve!! The inspiration photo that I used had a short red single axel beaded van. When room allows, one day I hope to build a trailer of some kind. Thanks Steve! Thanks Victor!! It just has a generic AMT Cummins out of the parts bag in it. I realize that it would have had the 743 C.I.D. Cummins instead of the 855, but I didn't open the hood, so from underneath, it will pass. Technically it's curbside. -

This is the Strato-models Autocar DC 75/100 kit. The frame rails were in the parts box from an old Freightliner kit. The cross members are from the parts box. The front wheels and rear tires are resin. Everything else is from the parts box. The decals are thanks to Charles Rowley.

Canadian Kenworth LW 900
DRIPTROIT 71 replied to lwwoodss's topic in WIP: Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
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! -
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.

Thanks Bill! Thanks! I agree that it needs an exterior post trailer. I hope that one day room will allow it.
