JT. Thanks for the complement yes just a few little changes and it’s a whole different model

Jacob NP. Didn’t get the PM here’s my email drennen@charter.net. Send me your address and my wife will try to Mail the parts out tomorrow

We have the wet stuff. Very nice Warren

Hey I have a extra parts you need if you want them to make the day cab still. I’ll send them to you if you want

Just thought I would give a update on the tribute. I sold my 1.1 Autocar A64b the first week of November. I was in a bad car accident In September that didn’t help my Arthritis I’ve been fighting for years and it seems the accident has made it worse. Saying that I had to realize I can no longer crawl around the old truck and give her the attention she needs. The truck was starting to go down hill fast so instead of letting her rust and rod to death I decided to sell her. She went to a good home and the gentleman who bought her is going to restore her back to the original color and stripe I showed him on the line sheet I gave him. I plan on finishing this build this year and build one from the original line sheet.I had her 19yrs Here’s some pics of our hay days and our last day together.

Jerry like wise any progress yet can’t wait to see where you go with this

KJ I also echo what Brian said they will be grown before you know it

6 down caring 2 it’s good to do some math now and then what colors are you going to do? Any stripes? I’ll be following this one.

Thanks Brian hope I can pull this one off

Brian that’s funny I liked that. You may have to hold my hand and point at these builds I know I’m going to get confused.

Are you using the AMT cal.hauler or the T-501 cal. hauler. You can use the old T-500 for the frame I wouldn’t worry about the front springs they will look fine and you will get a long wheel base look with that frame remember this is a model

KJ You can never get tired of looking at a K-100 Model I’m not a big KW fan like my brother Bill is but always liked the K-100s Congratulations on your first! Your life will change indeed but for the better kids just makes your marriage compete I think.

There’s a lot of parts you can use in the Those lindberg Dodge Cab Over kits. You can use the headlights and door handles and the mirrors are correct ones also Petty had the Lindberg Dodge kit type cab lights and air horns. AITM has the “Yankee” type cab lights and 2 single horns. Also you can use the back cab mount that the rear of the cab sits on. Yes I would pick one up. The AITM headlights are ok but I would use the kit ones instead. If it was me I would by the AMT Ford Louisville Coca-Cola city delivery truck like Brian said. AMT also just release not long ago a tandem pull behind trailer that would work well with this truck. If you need some decals I will try to find out who I bought mine from let me know. Hope this helps

Jim. Thanks for the complement and stopping by haven’t heard from you in awhile.

Thanks Jim for the complement and stopping by

KJ it is nice to see you join in I always liked your K-100 builds. This one will definitely be interesting. Is this your first baby? I have 2 girls now 15 and 20yrs old model building kinda stopped for awhile after they came along and my world changed.I can’t see my life without them. I’ll be following

Very nice progress looking great

That’s funny back in the 80s when my brother built his Sunoco one his wife held it with surgical gloves on as he glued it and put the decals on it at that time the Sunoco tanker was very rare I think I gave $100 for it I’ll never forget that story

Push that mini me aside and get some plastic on the table I really would like to see you build something bigger I think it would be interesting

I’m with Bill that’s including myself

Very nice progress I like it

Nice save

Nice tank detailing including the pads for the Fuel line and Fuel gauge

Looking good Ken
