  1. Nice Work. The weathering is very well done. Looks like they just washed it, before heading out to the strip. Good Show.
  2. 1981. That is the year I graduated High School. Your truck really triggered some great memories. Beautiful Build. I like the Blue you chose. Good Show.
  3. Very Nice Build. You nailed the 'Work Truck' vibe, with this kit. I especially like the little extras from the other kit. It gives it some life, and a 'lived-in' look. Good Show!
  4. Cool Build. I like the colour. Good Show!
  5. Outstanding Builds! The comparison between the two is great. You really nailed the build both times. It is great to see that your original build survived all this time. Good Show!
  6. What a neat Build! A truck that most people would never see or model. You did a great job on this one. Good Show!
  7. Wow! What a great build. The weathering is superb, and it has the 'Look' that a real truck has. Good Show!
  8. Awesome Build, and great detail on the chassis! I really like the detail on this build. Clever how you solved the interference problems on the tilt cab. I must say, that to my eyes, the real truck has a grotesque, almost Japanese Samurai look to the whole front of the cab. Striking, but not very good looking. But, that is Mercedes' fault, not yours. Good Show!
  9. Super Sharp Build! I love the tinted headlights. Good Show!
  10. And, it does have the Light Bar. No radio that I can tell, but then the original kit never had a radio either, that I know of. Just an antenna. But, Congrats to Round2 for bringing those parts back.
  11. Great Project! The Bed / Frame modifications are done the way it would have been back in the day. Measure, cut, measure again, weld..... I've seen a number of Farm / Oilfield machinery that was modified just this way. You have a great looking truck project. The Belly Tanker Racer is neat. Good Show!
  12. It is always good to see a Model T built Stock. Good Show!
  13. Has there been any more information on this kit? I look forward to seeing it, out. Been a long time since we got a Light Commercial/ Police subject from Revell. Like Alberto & Luc, I see lots of potential in thus kit.
  14. Glad I could help.
  15. Great Build , Mike.
  16. It's not a box art, calculated to sell the kit to folks who have no idea what it is. It will sell scads to the older/ in-the-know types who recognize it. Wait to see what the Facebook types who have no clue what it is, though. That said, while the box art is well done, it is not what I would have picked. It is easy to go overboard with nostalgia, and this appears to me to be such a case. But, I'm not in charge, and presumably Steve G, and the Kat's have better information than I do which is why they went with this option.
  17. The Tu-Tone Paint looks fantastic, Marcos!
  18. Yeah, the clear domes were on one of the parts trees in the 'Vert.
  19. You can get a real sense of the kit contents in the first 15 minutes or so. After that it is all building and painting, which you can leave on as background while you work on your kit.
  20. Other than the Hard Top, I wonder what parts differences there are between the two kits?
  21. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad, in September. It was hard.
  22. Well , I'd NOT recommend California, anymore. It is not nice like it was 20 years ago. I'd leave, but I'm too Old, too Broke, and too connected to my Kids to leave now.
