  1. I built that tanker a few months ago....loved it. It's definitely shiny.
  2. That's looking pretty nice...never thought about one of those before
  3. Well, with the exception of a second black stripe and the door decal, I think this one came out pretty good. Started out as the Tyrone Malone hideout truck. 2" sectioned from the frame, a fifth wheel and mud flaps from the spare parts box and lots of studying. I had to make some of the intake and exhaust piping to match this engine. The engine was swapped from the Detroit to the Cummins, as, according to what I can find, that's what the show truck had in it. As soon as I can find a source, I'll have the right food decals made for it.

  5. Just a lineup of the trucks I've built in the past year. A couple are still a work in progress (like the Mack). There are still a few more I want to add to the collection before I am satisfied. (Still hoping that round 2 will re-release the rubber duck mack from convoy)
  6. One of several. Had a few minor imperfections, but overall, I'm pretty happy. The kit is the AMT KENWORTH W925. Color is a custom I mixed and the stripes are from vinyl purchased at hobby lobby.
  7. Greetings. I used to build as a kid. Mostly muscle cars and aircraft. Then, as with everyone, life happened. Now, I find myself getting back into the hobby. These days, I prefer to build trucks, muscle cars and aircraft. I've rebuilt my paint assortment as well as acquiring several airbrushes.(I despise spray cans). I don't do show quality work, but I'm not too bad. I build for me. I'm always looking for a new way of doing stuff to improve my work. With that being said, I look forward to interacting with ya all and exchanging ideas.
