  1. I’ve been working on this for a little over two years thought I’d try to finish this thing up I’m leaning more towards the 1/32 scale due to the size and Limited space I have The truck is a JMT promotional truck and the frame is a monogram 1/32 scale R Model Mack that I’ve modified and added the tanks to. The interior is zinc chromate green and the gearshift knobs or pale green enjoy the pics
  2. That Diamond Reo will be a clean build
  3. Thanks guys for your kind words and compliments Larry I’m with you there I also love those R Models and B Models
  4. Thanks David that day in his basement he gave me this cool box to put my parts in he was a great guy
  5. I built this back around 1988 the years have took its toll on it. I’ve lost several pieces it stayed in my mom and dad‘s house for many years before I retrieved it my Mom and Dad both smoked very heavy and it has bad nicotine damage to the paint and decals so I’ve decided to rebuild it. A friend of mine called the “Junkman” who came to shows in St. Louis for many years helped get the parts I needed to build it back in 1988. He long has passed away but it was always a treat to visit his house and go down to the basement and stand in all and look at those old model kits and “Junk” so this build I’m dedicating it to him. Thanks for the memories Charlie.

  16. Thanks guys. Tom. I never seen that post but I must say I would have to agree with you. There’s so many ways to build this kit I plan on building another one in the same “60s” Custom now that AMT included those cool 60s hub caps. Thanks for stopping by and the complement
  17. This is a old Original AMT Ford pick up I bought at a Model show several years ago it had been previously built Thought I’d rebuild and paint it and just play around with it and see what I would come up with. The paint it’s some oddball color my brother gave me many years ago the steering wheel is from the parts box as well as the seat the tires I tried out make white walls with a white paint pen my first time ever doing this anyway enjoy the pics
  18. Chuck nice build I always like your engine weathering and detailing
  19. Can someone move this to Under Glass thanks
  20. This is my take on the 1960 Chevy pick up released into 2000 by AMT the colors are Pactra Buttercup Yellow and is bone stock built right out of the box. Enjoy the pics
  21. Brian I can’t load any pics of mine on here do to some kinda glitch on the site but he thined it down I bought a long nose last year it would be easy to cut his resin cuts like butter.
