Herb Deeks

Thanks JT yeah that Orange and black one is nice post some pics of your collection so far.

Gator. Thanks for the complement and stopping by it’s been to hot to paint the rear wheels hope to get back on it soon

Some great stuff guys I like that Dodge ramp Truck

Randy thanks I’ll keep you guys updated

Here’s some 1/64 DCP Peterbilt 379s I’m working on rebuilding. I’ve been collecting them for a few years now I mostly buy the parts only like the Cab, Hood, and put them on different frames and change them from when they came from the factory. I like to “calm them down a little” without all the big visors, dozer bumpers and fenders.

Chris. Do you need the original when Winross wheels and tires if you do I can think I can help you

Cut the tab and do it your way can’t always use the tabs and the mounts the model companies make or show you where to put them I’ve done it lots of times. Your truck is looking good and I don’t see negativity in what you say in your reply these old kits and be a nuisance sometimes

I like it seated and watching

Jeff. Thanks I’ve seen a few A64B dump trucks mostly are DC64.

Jeff. Thanks for the complement it’s been a fun build. I’ll have a update on a couple days. When I bought the real truck I asked what color green was that the owner said it ford jade green I matched it with Dupicolor rattle can Enrico. Welcome to the forum and thanks for stopping by and the complement

Dan. Thanks that’s a good idea I just might have to do that

A little mock up

Thanks Dan I had some on my other phone but it crash I have some I took years ago but I’ll have to dig them out. With that Autocar it’s kinda hard to see because of the butterfly hood. I appreciate the help I might try another run at it. I have a 352 Pete day cab single axle I need to finish it’s almost done if you want I can post you a pic of it

Daniel. I’m kind stumped on my 290 Cummins in my Autocar I’m building although I owned the real truck seems like I just can’t get it the way it’s supposed to look so I may just build it as a 350 or 370. Your doing great on this build

Nice plumbing

A little more work done last night now for the paint

Dan. Thanks for the complement going to get some more done on it tonight Geoffrey. Thanks for stopping by and the complement. I hated to sell my truck last Fall but with my physical condition I couldn’t keep it looking the way it should look so I sold to a guy who’s going to keep the old girl in shape and take her to truck shows like I did.

Like that interior it’s starting to shape up to nice truck

Worked on the frame last tonight got the front half done now moving to the back

Carl. Thanks for the complement I really need to get back on this it is a nice truck I think I have a plan to fix that cab to set level.

Jeff thanks also for the extension I know I haven’t gave any updates for months and I I know I’m probably disqualified but that’s ok I still want to finish my build I mostly joined for the fun to build with the guys.

Thanks Dan. Thought I would tidy this one up while taking break from the Titan

Bed has been mounted on now for the details
