  1. Great photo ad mike, thanks for sharing. Luckily, we will be getting this bed, at an affordable price, with the new re issue of the '60 F 100. Hope to see many of these done in the future. Rookie Resins built this beautiful F 250 4x4 using the original AMT '60 bed.
  2. Just curious why this item is still not listed on your site, is it a regular item in stock, or is it made to order?
  3. I may be a victim of digital remastering, but I'm happy with the color on the build vs the color of season 2 truck in the series. Almost done, still waiting on the front plates. There were liberties taken from an 100% correct season 2 build, but I'll have to settle for a 95% correctness and leave the ultimate to my fellow builders. Thanks again to Hakan for all your help researching Sonny's KW.
  4. Great idea! Really like the stance and wheelbase, this one can run circles around the Wedge.
  5. The Transtar ll is not an easy kit to come by, a surcharge is in order for this build! Looks spot on, nice job!
  6. Thanks for all the positive comments! Getting closer to completion, here is where it's at right now. Working on hood.
  7. Your vintage KW's look great Lee, really like the wheel upgrade! Strato models is working on a high-quality vintage KW in 1/25 resin. Should be available soon! Slowly but surely, we are filling the voids.
  8. I'm afraid I've added more future work to your table. That KW cabover with a day cab conversion would be perfect. Remember, when building fleet trucks, little to no chrome!
  9. Great job! The rig shows pride of ownership, used, but not abused. Really like the color choices, the tu tone cab and ramp body blend in very well.
  10. Great new addition to the Carolina fleet! Really like the CAT, 2 hole wheels and plumbing on this one. That 13 speed will extract all that CAT's 200 horses in local city pickup and delivery work.
  11. Excellent job! Extra details look great! This reefer requires a Pepsi fleet tractor doing the pulling now!
  12. Hope the F 100 hubcaps are part of the "bits and pieces".
  13. Nice job! Like the foot stirrups and drivers side mirror conversion!
  14. Great job on the conversion! We rarely see one of these panels designed for off road use. Looks like Red's Sinclair purchased an ex U.S. Army surplus vehicle.
  15. Very nice tribute to the original photo, good looking city delivery workhorse.
  16. Great work! Cleanly built, very impressive modifications.
  17. Looks great! Really like the decals, tinted windows and engine detailing
  18. True, the '68-'69 grills were out of proportion, but the early issue hubcaps were not an out of proportion issue, they were completely the wrong design for a F 100. There is a silver lining in every cloud. They inadvertently gave up an early '67 F 250 hubcap in most F 100 kits. This cap fit the carryover 8 lug 16" rim. Would be nice if the 3d printer people do the pre '67 8 lug rim. Red and white F 250, shows early 250 hubcap. Beige F 250 shows later '67 and on F 250 cap, which we finally got correct in the '68 F 250 kit and '72 F 250 4x4 kit. Last photo shows the correct '67-'72 F 100 hubcap that should have been in the original '69 kit.
  19. Better late than never, IMO, these really should be offered as a "parts pack" for all the loyal customers who purchased every Moebius '67-'72 F 100 kit that did not include the correct F 100 "hubcap".
  20. Excellent craftsmanship and ingenuity! Will save this as reference on how a 1/32 or 1/25 KW deserves to be built.
  21. Most decals applied, still waiting on bumper license plates. Haven't decided on how to do the fender pin stripes yet. Added a rare for me "on the work bench" shot. Note color changes depending on light.
  22. Update, site is back up, some items are available again, including the excellent drive tires.
  23. That is one clean W 1000 chuckyr, great reference photo!
  24. Nice to see another medium -heavy duty build coming together, looks great.
