Thanks Zip!

Just finished up this in-betweener ,,a few do dads left to do but pretty much done ,,local car to me,,I could only find one picture of it ,,I used the new Moebius A990 65 Coronet ,the decals I did myself with inkjet decal paper ,,,I took a little artistic license with some of the lettering

I could use any body/boom/axle lift parts for my FDNY wrecker project ,,let me know what you have ...message me,,thanks!!

Decals were shipped by STS,,,should be here soon!!

Nice job!

When it was new back in 2017

Charles,they hook the axle lift/tow bar to the towing eyes that are attached to the frame rails,they protrude through cut outs in the rear of the body ,,you can see it in that video.Most all fire trucks have them now so no underneath damage is done

Thanks Bob! ..............HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Somebody 3D print this for me!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol ?

Dom...I go 287-Outerbridge- Staten Island-Verrazzano-BQE-LIE West to 1st exit -Starr Ave FDNY/EMS Shop ,,,,,,not to bad .Horton is only supplying the Rescue Medics,,Ford F-550's/6.7's that have had a frame stretch .....longggg truck! Wheelcoach is delivering the regular rigs,,, I was in Queens last week ,,,didn't see anything in the shop,but I only walk half way thru to the office,,if it was a Horton I would have heard something.The new Hortons are replacing the International MV's

Got the Mack Granite cab kit from Karl today,,looks good ! Also some PPG FDNY Red and White right from Horton. Still waiting on decals.I ordered Jamies E7 and an Allison I got 2 builds going on ,,the Green Hornet AWB Plymouth and I started the new Moebius A990 Coronet,,when those are done I'll start diving into this

Thanks Dom ,I've been working part time now for VCI as a driver ,lately I've been shuttling new Horton /Ford F550's Rescue Medics to the FDNY shop in Queens ,,,I saw it there the other day ,,that lit the spark,,,I shoulda taken a pic ! ....next time

lol!! Gary.....let's hope so!!!

I think I'm going to use Jamies E7 Etech engine and his Allison transmission,,,bout as close as I'm gonna get

These are the decals I got,,,the "FLEET SERVICES" I will make myself on inkjet decal paper

I'm open to suggestions as far as the engine goes,,does anyone know of a 3D or resin aftermarket modern Mack engine ??????????

It will be similar to the unit in the picture,but not quite exact,,,,lol,I'm using GSMT's Mack Granite CV713 cab kit,,,close but not exact,,I have the Revell 1/25th Kenworth wrecker kit,,and the AMT R685ST Mack tractor and some FDNY decals,not sure what I'm doing for an engine ,,, no MP7 or MP8 resin or 3D out there that I know of....I could use the Maxidyne out of the R685 kit,,,I do have an Auslowe Cummins ISX laying around!!,hmmm ?? ##modeltruck## (globalscalemodeltrucks.com)

Started on my A990 this week ....... building it as a car that was local to me

Gathering up stuff for my Winter project........stay tuned

Understood Joe ,, STS did the decals for my Reid Whisnant Duster

Have you tried STS and see if he can do them ?

There's one on Ebay,AMT Snapkit ....$60 or the MPC ....$595.00 lol !!

I know there's some older posts about this but is anyone out there doing 72 cuda grilles and tailights ,,,I have the 1/25th Revell AAR kit that I want to do as a 72 for a Ronald Lyles Pro Stock

Everybody pretty much had their own way of chassis setup ,,,, nothing cookie cutter back then! I woulda thought fer sure they ran coil overs with the way that thing squatted down in front! ..................................................Found this pic of an early Stepp B029 car
