Ok she is done. Moving to Under Glass

Very nice choice

I’m glad you did Sam

I’m with Bill these are always fun to build and easy and they seem to always turn out great you will like this kit outside the tires can be tricky

Great start Doc. You know we’re not getting younger I’m only a couple months older than you. It would be nice to see this old truck build I have several models from my childhood and teen years yet glad you did give up on it. I’ll be following

Very nice combo looking forward to this

This is my entry for the BRBO. It’s a AITM Mack RL700LS with a AITM Mercury Sleeper. I have also added some Don Mills 5 hole Alcoa wheels to the front with Herb Deeks rubber tires. The frame is a doner from a Monogram Mack R that will be modified. I’m uncertain about the rear wheels at this time I might go with 5 hole Alcoa or 5 hole Steel. This will have a pre 1973 dash in it casted by AITM. Here’s a parts layout and a small mock up. Enjoy the pics.

Thanks Sam hope I can finish this today

Jim we’ve all been there

You will pull it off I’m sure. Looks like I got the front seat on this one

This was my very first Model Truck post on here and I need to get this one done while the 1/32 scale mood is in high gear. Enjoy the pics

Here’s some more little details I got done tonight. Instead of snapping the Stack/Air Assembly to the back of the cab I keep it separated and touched up a few lights and Black wash the grill. I guess this will be my first complete build in 2020.

Jeff Thanks for getting this together. I think it’s been 2yrs since I done a BRBO and I can sense this one’s going to be a lot of fun a very different atmosphere than the last one that I was in Lee

This build will be interesting and challenging good luck. My brother Bill Drennen sold all his molds to Jamie you can get the 379 1/24 scale hood my brother made from Jamie if he has casted it up. My brother sold these hood conversations back in the early 90s in 1/25 scale and 1/24 scale

Doc I know the miles

Thanks Jeff I think it’s going to be a fun build always liked the R-700 too. I drove one for about 3yrs I really liked that old truck have a Happy New Year Lee

Ben I got it from AITM drop him a email and he will fix you up

I got my wheels from Don Mills today and I’ve added some Herb Deeks 1/32 Rubber tires to them now I think I’m set. Here’s a quick mock up and a pic of the Don Mills 5 hole Alcoa wheels with Herb Deeks tires

Yes that would nice to see all the hard work you’ve done.

Tesla. Thanks for the complement I think making the decals was the best part of the build. Alexis. Thanks for the complement just one of my favorite 1/32 trucks had one back in 1982 built it bone stock this guy took me down memory lane for sure

Looks very nice it’s ashamed you have to put the wet stuff on it soon then every thing will just blend together thankfully you took a lot of pic of the build. Keep the scratch going

Ben I went to Auselow’s web site and looked those wheels and tires up and they are nice thanks for posting

Tom This truck reminds me of a truck that was in one of my old 1981 Auto World Magazine. The truck was built by Lou Kroack. Here’s some pics of it

Done a some more work on the KW this morning a few more things and touch ups and I’m calling it done

Thanks Ben
