  1. Internet explorer must be my problem. Thanks for the help.
  2. This is a Road Boss that I finished last year. It is a little different take on an old workhorse. I tried loading these pictures with photobucket, but could not get it to work. Every time I followed the tutorial, but when I click OK in the image box the screen freezes every time. If anyone has suggestions I would appreciate them.
  3. No trailer yet. I stopped building models about 10 years ago. I got rid of most of my kits, my models, and the cabinet that they were in. I just started building again last year and haven't made room for trailers yet. However, I hope to soon. Thanks for all the comments and encouragement!
  4. All of the Cabovers posted are incredible! Mine do not compare, but here are a few that I have built over the years.
  5. The kit comes with cab, hood, tanks, dash (had to be narrowed), and an assortment of panels that can be used for the interior (which worked quite well), but no glass. The cab was molded without window molding. I used round styrene to make window molding. For the front windshield, I then cut a channel behind the molding. I used clear lay film similar to the window glass in some model cars for the windows. It took several tries, but I cut a windshield to fit into the channel. It is somewhat of a snap-fit and is not glued.
  6. Looks great!! Love the engine choice.
  7. This one is really coming to life.
  8. Here is the last model that I've finished this year. It is a 1/25 scale White 9000. I started with a Road Boss kit. The hood is a Back Yard Shed from Saurkraut. The engine is a 6-71 Detroit from Spaulding. The tanks are from Saurkraut. There are several scratch built parts. Decals are from modeltruckin.com. It's not perfect, but I enjoyed building it.
  9. Hello, I'm new to the forum. This is a 1/25 scale model of a Dodge Bighorn that I recently finished. It is a resin body from RMR. The chassis is from the Ertl 4300 IH. The wheels are from the Ertl 4200 IH. The Cummins engine is AMT from the parts box.
