  1. This truck looks the business
  2. Those decals do the truck justice, looks good
  3. Now I have found a resource for all the elbows I need to plumb this engine. Going thru runners looking for the correct diameter and curves, new use for runners that we throw away.
  4. Great tip Brian, woohoo, I think it worked.
  5. Thanks Brian for that tip, I have a roll of this chrome contact paper (unknown where it came from. I try that out. How wide did you cut it?
  6. Finally found some red shrink tubing that just fits over .125 plastic rod (3.125 scale inches). I want to replicate the engine in the pictures and will be using a custom color on the motor ( no rules build). So need some help, what can I use for the silver clamps on the red hoses?
  7. Two afternoons to make the air exchanger for the turbo.
  8. Test Fitting a Cummins NTA 370 into the Autocar, pretty snug fit, will be able to use the radiator for that engine ( fits in the grill opening)
  9. Like where this is going
  10. Wow, very cool. I had no idea of all the offerings in this scale.
  11. Those look really good, you guys got all the cool details
  12. I just realized you shortened the hood to a 5100 , if I got that correct.
  13. Did not know this cab was being produced anywhere. Cool project, will be following along.
  14. Randy, the brass framework is outstanding, but I have a question. I have only used brass in a few simple applications, how do you cut/ bend the brass and second: what tools do you use the solder it together with?
  15. Paul, that looks outstanding, well done sir
  16. That is one sharp truck, well done Brian
  17. Wow, that is a cool build, well done, love the story for this truck.
