Great Idea, Roland.

Reegs, be sure to share your Photos on this thread, se wee can see them. Great News on getting the Kit!

I have the First and Third Issue boxings.

There is a category on Driver Logs, called "Off Duty @ Wellsite", used for oilfield Class 8 Trucks. It allows a truck driver to essentially pause his "On-Duty" 70 Hour Weekly Clock, so that he can preserve his driving hours. If those dump truck work for oilfield contractors, that may explain the sleepers.

MPC Kit

Keith, I found the Header Flanges. They are hidden in with the Roll Cage parts! Right Next to each other. Hard to see though.

I may need a set from Ray.

Thanks, James!

What are the differences between the Yenko and COPO besides the wheels?

Awesome Work! The Camper Shell alone, is a work of Art.

Outstanding Work! That is an excellent water effect!

Beautiful Build! One of the Nicest Builds of this kit I've seen. It uses the same Chassis as the T.D. Dragon Wagon. I always wanted to kit bash the 3 kits together.

That is a First or Second Issue kit. The Original.

Thanks for the music , Jason. It was great. Now, I've got a new Rabbit Hole to go down!

Pete, Riley, Bill. Salsa is even worse than Sour Cream. The Paco Smells around here goof the order about 40% of the time now, so asking for "No Sour Cream" gets results about 3 out of 5 orders. Riley, Nice Lee Greenwood Riff. You earn points for being Clever. Bill, Nuggets are one of my secret vices. Such tasty cardboard, though. I seldom use any dipping sauce. Thanks Guys, for letting me vent.

Wow, so how old is this kit, really? From 1958?

Is that one of the old Aurora Kits, Mark? It sure looks good.

Minicraft Triumph TR-3 Kit. How old is it Really? Did it originate with PYRO back in the day?

Man, I did not know Mr. Bean had a Landie! Great Job! The tire choice is great.

Tim, I continue to go back and look at these pics! Dave did a fantastic job on these kits. They inspire me to try building one myself. It won't be a snice as hos, but I'm willing to try my own version. Thank You again for sharing these photos!

Boy, that cleaned up nicely! It went from Absurd to Svelte Custom, with just a few parts left off, and some well chosen modifications. You really changed the kit, from goofy to respectable. Great Work!

Wow! What a showstopper! It looks really good in Red.

There was talent in both Brothers. Sam as a Designer, George as a Promoter. Just too bad that Sam didn't outlive George......

Same Frame in the Sand Dragon Dragster. The instructiions in the Sand Dragon, might show how to assemble the frame more clearly. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/straightline-competition/amt-sand-dragon-san/?view=roll#1 And it is in Both TV Tommy Ivo kits. Both the Streamliner and Conventional Rear engine kits. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/straightline-competition/amt-tommy-ivo-strea/?view=roll#1 https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/straightline-competition/amttommyivonewreare/?view=roll#1 And Here is the MPC Don Garlits "Swamp Rat 1-R" Dragster. Looks like the frames are a close match, in real life, but AMT and MPC tooled them differently. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/mpc-instructions/straightline-competition/mpc-don-garlits-rea/?view=roll#1

I like this build very much. The Powered Trailer is a neat touch.
