  1. Incredible updates Brian I was looking at your front hubs again and they look amazing as well as all the components your adding daily. Thanks for sharing.
  2. Thanks Steve I appreciate it especially coming from the 1/32 clever guru 😂
  3. That is one sharp looking farm truck. The build is very clean and tidy you didn’t a great job on it. The homemade bed is outstanding. Now you have gave me a idea to build one like the real one I once owned. Thanks for sharing.
  4. Thanks I appreciate your complement. These are not the easiest to build with all the fit issues and the little extra details where a change for me. I really enjoy building these and there my favorite of all the AMT kits.
  5. Now that’s cool. Did it have one of those high side coal beds? I’m planning on doing a dump truck and possibly a tow truck too with these. Thanks for stopping by.
  6. Hurry up Jeff seats are filling up. Glad you found a seat and refreshments will follow soon.
  7. Ken glad you stopped by have a seat
  8. I moved this to “Under Glass” to see better pics.
  9. Thanks Ken I appreciate it. There’s better pics in the “Under Glass” section if you want to take a look.
  10. It’s hard for my me too decide on that one Ken I like the decade before these it’s hard to choose. But I know one thing anything after 1990 my likeness for trucks decreases drastically for sure. These new trucks to me is a Pickup on steroids PACCAR include.
  11. Yes it is Ken that tool box rack sets it off. I can’t wait for the wet stuff to be applied looks like you chose a Beautiful color.
  12. That’s beautiful Ken. The black base brings the depth out of the green. Of course Green is my favorite color.
  13. Thanks Jeff there’s a bit of work in this little guy to improve the looks of it but the potential is there and worth it. Glad you dropped in.
  14. I’m sorry I’m just trying to get some of these orphan builds done 😂. Yes I have a lot of interesting trucks of all scales in my collection I don’t like to just stick to on scale or model. Thanks for stopping by.
  15. Your so right Brian. I Custom made these years ago I’m glad I used some quality decal paper. It took some time for each side I cut them in half so they were more manageable. Thanks for stopping by and your nice complement.
  16. Thanks Ron for stopping by I appreciate it.
  17. Your welcome Ken. I know you will make the a beautiful truck like you always do.
  18. Here’s another old build that I started around 2010 and never finished. When New Ray came out with these I bought 2 cases of them. I would disassemble them and strip the paint off then Custom Make my own Decals and sell them on eBay. Here’s one that never made it to eBay that I was working on and I never finished it. Maybe now I will finish the Truck but it will not be for sale this time it’s going into my personal collection. The truck cab is painted Tangerine Orange and I hand painted the hood, fenders, grille and frame with Testors Acrylic Dark Blue. The Roadway decals are the old Ert DM600 ones scaled to 1/43 that I did. I’ll be adding some Don Mills Wheels, Mirrors, Bulldog and side badge decals. Other parts are from 1/43 AMT models like the front spit rim rings the old 2 piece Tire’s, metal axles and I made a scratch built bumper made from styrene channel. Hope you follow along.
  19. Thanks Jeff I’ll be looking for it. It needs a Twin Big Brother. 😂
  20. I appreciate your complement and that is what I was going for on this truck years ago. Thanks for stopping by.
