    I went to my local Hobby Lobby in Henderson, Nevada. The store was very crowded and I happen to find the store manager to open paint display. When I went to check out all the registers were maned and the lines went back to the nest to last isle before rear wall. Took 30 minutes to check out. No holes in kit section.

    I have been looking for a more modern Ford pick up in 1/24 or 1/25 for a project. I found reference to a 1/24 Meng Ford F350 but seem to be out of stock most places. Was there a problem with the kit or didn't sell ?? Thanks for input in advance

    This is a Lindberg model of a Landing Ship Tank in 1/245 scale. My father in law was a Coast Guard LT. was assigned to the ship from the time of launch September 1944 till the end of 1945 when the ship arrived at Pearl Harbor.

    As I remember Cat dozer and Autocar dump $29.95, 4X4 pick up $19.95 Coke themes $19.95 BUT the shelves are price naked no the kits so the kits might be on the wrong shelf.

    I was in a Walmart in Henderson, Nevada today and near the toy sections was free standing display of AMT model kits. I saw Autocar dump, Cat dozer, several Coke themed models , the jeep with cannon from Godzilla movie and 4X4 Ford pick up. No paints or other supplies I would guess this is a seasonal display only.

    I found this 1/43 Ford wrecker on Ebay from France. Looks like made for company in South America.

    I purchased these kits many years ago. When I move to Nevada I left them with a friend to buy but he decided he would not be able to put them together so he shipped them to me.

    Sir you are correct. If I listed it as a 351 with the packaging saying 281 I would also get people questioning why I did. Can not win either way I still like the truck. This was ordered by a French (?) company form China so who knows how much research was done.

    A 1/43 scale Peterbilt 281 log truck. The most interesting think is the plastic display case was glued to the 2 1/2 foot by 2 foot poster.

    A Dallas and Mavis B series Mack with lowboy and Cat tractor load. I used this photo for First Gear to produce a 1/25 scale diecast model.

    The Hobby Gear comes in sets. I had some problems with the red paint can nozzle and did not catch the results.

    I am building this as a squad truck from the 1965 might look. The cab and box have not been glued to the frame yet. I has problems with the soft plastic stub axles and had to drill out rear axle and insert a rod. The tools are from Hobby Boss. I am ordering west cost style rear view mirrors and the top light is to new so will go with 2 domes and siren in between. The ladders are from AMT kit and are to big will find some shorter ones.

    Thanks; The box shows the chrome trim so I was trying to figure out if I missed something
  16. ROY FERGUSON
    I am working on one of these trucks and I noticed you do not have any chrome trim on the doors and hood. I looked over the instructions for the model and it does not show the chrome. Did you leave the trim off ? I am I missing something in the instructions for the chrome? Thanks Roy

    How do you find GW Trucks?

    To bad they used the old box art showing the floatation front tires. I picked up the new kit last week so I knew in advance the floats would not be in the kit. Found several suitable after market floats to use.
