mine too look forward to seeing more

I hope I can still get the ROG version..my local shop is going to order it for me, 35 bucks plus 10%off since I'm a club member...its worth it to me...

hmm..i'll be adding that to the dvr..saved along with Cafe Racer tv, and Transformers Generation 1

That third picture above, looking up at the pipes....you'd swear it was the real thing. very nice!!!

just an idea..i've been thinking of this one for a while...easy to do with the midget kits out for that v8-60

wow, my meager stash can't compare with this stuff and apparently what I have causes great physical and mental harm to my fiance cause all she does is complain. I tell her I don't have a third of what many people have...

when I get around to installing mine on my 454ss shown on my avatar i'll post pics.. Gray

i'm digging it..I really like the grill idea..something different, which is good! Gray

just sent you an email...very happy about this!! my 454ss project has been waiting for one of these! Gray

there might be other types...i just realized that dajiban literally translates to dodge van.... btw it looks SWEET! oh and for motivation on the Gemballa i'm watching Wagan Midnight

looking good dude...these engines/kits sure are fun to build. good luck with the rest!

my technique is to use some sol and set, some heat from a hair dryer set on low, q-tips and water...it takes a little while but i've had success with the above combo... Usually I soak the part being covered with the red bottle stuff (I can't remember which is set or sol), then get the decal on, and soak it once again with the both some sol and set, and I hit it with some heat and a q-tip til dry, then I usually repeat the process as needed... Gray

very cool..excellent build Tim!

cool deal..i'm willing to wait for a quality piece of resin...thanks for the update!

i've got a sweet 454ss waiting patiently for one of these supercharges...can't wait to be able to order one..

I love this!..I need at least 2, one for a regular build, the other for a day cab truck.. Great Stuff!

Cool post guys... I don't have any personal experience with these trucks, but I do like the style of them alot...A friend of mine bestowed me with one of these kits gratis so i've got some ideas for a custom one....kinda like the international project truck on Gearz

very nice Rick! i'll be watching this one

had my eyes on this one at the local hobby shop..went tonight for my model club meeting and it was on clearance for 30 bucks....had to have it

wow! beautiful truck...and its a cabover!

Oh yeah def. go with the Renault, I love some modern European cabovers

Here we go.. I'm sorry I didn't read the rules fully about glueing the chassis together before pics were taken, but trust me this was all done last night, I just got the kit home on sunday. I bought the DD kit and I swapped the SD parts with a friend...who hadn't started on his either, please let me know if this is ok with you guys...as you can see in the box, there is nothing else started on... Anyway this will be my version of a UPS truck, I'm also going to do a single headlight conversion and I've gotten in touch with Jamie to get some of his really nice 5 hole wheels. I'll either find a brown thats close to UPS brown or i'll take the easy route and order some from Scale Finishes. Like I said, this will be a quickie build with detail...trying to keep the mods to a minimum since this is also being entered in my local club group build which ends in January

i'll get one tomorrow...i glued the chassis together and de-seamed the suspension parts on my ups truck tonight. this will hopefully be a non-overcomplicationitis build that i'll finish quickly

question, do our trucks have to run a trailer to be entered? I like building the trucks but I don't know if I'll ever really do any trailers. If not then count me in for 2 possibly 3 trucks... White Freightliner SD - UPS Truck (even though they never used these, I work with what I have) Mack Cruiseliner custom with a stretched frame and a Mack v-8 and my custom Chevy Titan that i've already got a build thread for if that's allowed Thanks Gray

This is definitely on my list of rigs to build. I'm one of those people who say the uglier they are, the cooler they are..lol This truck embodies the style of the late 50's/early 60's and I think that's why its so ugly/attractive..lol Great builds above guys btw
