Lookin good Dom! The shop my Dad worked at was a Maxim and Ward dealer in East Orange back in the 50's early 60's ,,that's gonna need a Waukesha gas engine! lol

Mine is still in the box on the shelf next to it's brother the 4270 ,lot's of possibilities with these ,, good to see it resurrected Lee ! (it needs a Detroit though,,,,lol 😛 )

Gary,yes I'm doing the bike 1st,,I'll start a thread for the GMC soon,I didn't get the tanker body yet

She's done ,,stuck a load in there under the tarp

She's done,,under glass ,while I'm gathering stuff for my next build which will be Global Scale's GMC 9500 on the AMT General chassis with a 6V-71 Detroit single rear oil delivery tank truck I'm gonna do the Schwinn bike kit like the one I had,,,it was like B5 Blue with a Pearl white banana seat

For the decals Slixx does,,it's in my post on this thread,thats what I used,the Moebius 64 wasn't around at the time I planned this build

................got some bench time finally after a busy week of part timing,lol....and end of season yard work,,replaced a rotted out section of T-1-11 on my shed . She's almost done,,have to make up the tarp setup and a few more little items .I pinned the hood latches on so I can swing them down and be able to open the hood.Made my own mirrors with brass rod and Evergreen

Thanks Jeff

Thanks Dom !

I had a few White Road Expeditors that snapped the cast aluminum front cab mount/pivot when I tilted the cab for service,,not a good day

Topher,,,,it's an AMT kit,,,your better off without instructions...........lol

Came out great Lee.... I can hear the Detroit idling now,,has just the right amount of roll 😉

Oh yeah,,the White Road Boss2 ! Lots of possibilities!

Thanks Lee,,,it's getting down to all the small stuff now,,which usually takes the longest ,,,,I might stick the Autocars front skid plate on ,paint it the same yellow

yeah,,what I did was wrap some thin masking tape on each barrel ,,which gave them a bit of resistance, the truck/dump body would never be displayed at an angle which would allow the sections to pull out anyway,,,I just tried it as an alternative to the kits wobbly plastic cylinder,,looks better IMHO

Amazon.com: XKOS 4 Pack Different Back Scratcher Portable Telescoping with Rubber Handles, Extendable Metal Back Massager Tool with Beautiful Box, Stocking Stuffers for Men Women Adults (Black) : Health & Household Brian,my mini chop saw was able to cut it

.............I used the back scratcher for the hyd cylinder,,,lol! Got the air cleaner and tubing in,I'll make inner splash aprons on the fenders out of mudflap rubber

I used BMF on that Brian ,,,oh and the Revell chrome on the radiator shell I hit with 2k clear when I did the cab,,,came out pretty good and now I don't have to worry about touching it,,,lol

..........dump body attached to pivots,,might do something different with the mast cylinder,,,I have some Amazon Chinesium telescopic back scratchers I've been thinking about ,cutting the stainless wont be fun though ,,,attached the exhaust ,just have to do the outlet pipe,working on the air cleaner and piping,,,then I'll do the lights and mirrors

...............almost ready for cab mounting.I had a pair of front floats from Jamie ,,,using them

...............finished decals,cleared now to finish up any chrome ,black out the window rubber and install the interior which is almost done

Looking great Gary!

............tires/wheels done,engine in place,started decals,interior painted,the diamond plate on top of the fenders I will do with BMF or Fusion Firm

I went with Tamiya Camel Yellow ,,pretty close I guess.I made some Stavola decals on inkjet decal paper,,,see how those turn out on the truck

.............shot some color ,fenders are black,,couple days and I'll mask off and hit the radiator shell with Revell chrome,,,painted the grille white and have to hit the Brockway emblem with chrome and black wash the mesh .Interior is painted the same Mack green as the B-61 and I started to detail paint the cast spoke wheels(I shoulda got the Auslowe ones in hindsight,,,using the Autocar kit wheels)
