Roy, give a look at ST Supply, Paul has lots of after market floats, I have used many of them and they look great and work well, much better than the box stock AMT Floats... Jeff

Our Slide in boxes used hydraulics off the truck engine, ran a few lines and a couple quick couplers to the hydraulic motor mounted on the slide in and you were in business.... Jeff

I just received this beauty and holy cow it is spectacular !! The detail is unbelievable, well worth the money ( for me in Canada, well over $100 ) I am wondering if there is an English version of the instructions by any chance ? I certainly can follow the photos, but the write up may hold some tips that could be very useful.... any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Jeff

I'm LOVIN this !!!

Not sure if this is the right spot for this, and if not the Mods can move it to where it should be......In this turbulent divided and uncertain world we are finding ourselves living in these days, I sure don't see many " atta boys", But I really think this needs a huge shout out................ Last September I placed a decal order with Jerry Reeter at Model Truckin Decals............... paid for the order, and patiently waited.....and waited.... and waited..... and waited... 6 weeks on I emailed him and asked if my order had been sent, and sure enough it certainly had.... ok wait a little longer...... and wait.......and wait some more..... nothing, everyday, check the mail and nothing.....I was going to throw in the towel, and chalk it up to the cost of doing business, but got to thinking, the order, the exchange and the shipping it came to just a little over $75.00 CDN... That's a lot to toss away for an old retired guy, so I contacted Jerry again and asked if there was anything WE could do so that I could get these decals I REALLY want.... I was willing to work with him, as it isn't his fault the mail people messed up, but he said he would reprint the set and send them on again..... a few weeks go by....... and after 5 DAYS at Canada Customs, the wayward order arrived today!! 8 Months on......Jerry went out of his way to make this right although it was not his fault or doing. a HUGE THANK YOU Jerry for going above and beyond, I will order again, if you want to take another chance shipping here, and I will more than happily recommend Model Truckin decals and Jerry for hi incredible customer service ! And IF the first set ever find there way here, I will happily Pay Jerry for them.... Restores my faith in human nature ! Jeff

Thanks Brian... Jeff

LOVE it ...looks the part exactly Jeff

Cool... the wheels and the color make it ! Nice job Jeff

Just wondering if there is anyone out there, that may possibly have a full set or partial set of decals to the re-issue 1 /25 AMT Peterbilt 352 Cabover that they may consider parting with ? .... the set I am searching for is the Patriot scheme or the orange and blue stripes... NOT the Coors, or the Coke schemes..... I would happily buy the kit with these particular markings but it seems to be elusive and the Coke and Coors have replaced it, neither scheme interests me in the slightest, so that is why I am asking..... if anyone has a set they are willing to part with I would love to hear from you..............maybe we can cut a deal?? Thanks for taking the time to read this Cheers for now Jeff

Love the color... super singles, ......... interesting... cool build Jeff

Gorgeous..... where did you get the head lights, I love those.............. what a beautiful build... Jeff

Thanks , Brian...

Thanks for your kind words, Philippe, very pleased you like it Jeff

Thanks, Gary... I have seen your work, so your comment means a lot ! Jeff

Hi Ed, yes, it comes as a set, just make sure you mention to Paul that you want the tire and rim... they are 3D printed and are awesome.. Jeff

Thanks, Doc.... not sure I can source that, BUT I did find some possible hinges at Model Car Garage that might do the trick, maybe check them out for your next build, as it may save some time, they are called "Big Rig piano hinges"........... thanks and your build is wonderful ! Jeff

Thank you Steve, that is exactly what I wanted my vision to show.... I'm glad you appreciate the idea.. Jeff

I REALLY like this.... Jeff

Carl, Chris, Charles, and Helmut, thanks for the very kind words, I am not used to posting my models, and was quite nervous about it, but you guys along with the rest , have made this a very positive and enjoyable experience... I am very pleased you like what I was trying to accomplish Cheers Jeff

THANKS, Warren...

What a beauty !! That is top notch, what did you use for the door hinge? Love the attention to the details.... Take a bow for this one... it's spot on ! Jeff

Geez, you guys are so very kind, MANY thanks for the kind words.... I'm glad you like the weathering, it was a fine line, and it was my first time at using a white pigment for filtering the paint to make it look sun faded, and it kind of worked.... I'm really happy you guys like my efforts, it's very encouraging... Jeff

I used to do that with the 1974 Ford Louisville Cement truck I drove back in the day.... those damn things sure wouldn't hold a loaded truck on a steep hill.... ah the good old days eh?? LOL Jeff

cool build... I like it Jeff

Nice save, it's always fun to re-do and old build, looks great ! Jeff
