Pete68

Thanks Brian hope to get allot of progress this weekend

Like that hook Jeff Doc that boy (Vincent) is on a roll he needs some meds who ever heard of a Pete towing a Mack

Thanks Jeff I was going to paint the Reefer this weekend but it’s going to rain and snow

I see you finally put your purse down nice choice I’ll be watching

Warren If you have any post Oak trees around there very convincing

Your welcome Bill

This will be going behind the Mack RL700LS. I’ve started it the weather here is perfect for painting so I’ve already painted the box white with silver trim and assembled the bogey going to paint the Reefer next and the floor

Sam looks great was that you that mention you can buy the wood grain for this at Michael’s craft store seem like I read that in this thread or another one

Thanks Brian and Vincent it’s been in the box for awhile so I don’t doubt that they are

Very nice progress

Looking smart Brian I’m liking it very much

Ok Vincent go big or go home

Vincent you are too abrasive tonight lol

Warren try Tamiya nato black # X69 your tires will have a very flat black and they will except your weathering techniques a whole lot better. I painted these mud flaps with nato black

Warren I think he is talking about a western type “Stinger” that extends pass the tandems for longer log loads mainly used in the western states

Got it and the parts are packed and ready to go

Ok I’ll check it out

Nice doc and that’s what I nicked named my wife “Boomer” lol

My main weakness what color to paint

Thanks guys I’m putting it back on the bench tonight I’ve got a big head start on my BRBO so I will give this some attention

This Engine is identical to the one I had in my real Autocar. Not shown in this pic but my fuel filter was mounted under the pump on the left side of the engine. And you will have to move the dip stick to the right side of the engine that’s where the little red block is this one has no dip stick it’s plugged for some reason

Need a turbo and move some filters and water lines around and oil cooler the left side of the engine basically stays the same as the 250 with the intake I had one in my “real” Autocar it’s easy

Very sharp

Nothing wrong with that Jerry

Here’s  one I finished this summer. The frame in the kit was a “Rubber Block” suspension So I used a Monogram Ford aeromax frame with air suspension instead. I also added other parts from 1/32 New Ray Trucks Enjoy the pics
