  19. Slixx did the 64-65 cars and there's the decals from the Revell Landy Charger I think thats as close as your gonna get
  20. .............another crappy day ,,couldn't work outside so I finished up the Reo....put on all the do-dads ,lights..made the tarp mechanism ,,west coast mirrors with spots ,the kits mirrors weren't too bad so I used them instead of making a set out of aluminum tubing ,,,undecided on doing some weathering or not,,,maybe get some HO scale coal to use as asphalt .Think I'm going to build another Super Stock Hemi car next,a small inbetweener from the trucks
  21. .............starting to get nice out which means yard work and sitting out on the deck,,,but anyway,,,a little more progress made- dump body mounted,,fabbed up telescopic aluminum tubing to replace the plastic hyd rams in the kit (wont stay up without a prop though) ran the air brake/fuel lines some brackets have to be made yet.Made a PTO and direct drive dump pump and hyd reservoir.Installed radiator stay rods .Made and installed rubber mudflaps-fronts need the carriage bolts in the fenders yet.Painted the Dayton spoke wheels,brake drums and mounted with Jamie's tires (I was going to use 2hole Budds but only had 20") Installed aluminum tube driveshafts with slip yokes.Front bumper mounted ,,wip making better brackets. Rain tomorrow so I'll probably shoot the mirrors/cab lights and airhorns/headlight buckets/door handles and front signals with Alclad ,,come up with some tail lights.Grill needs some more black wash ,,I was going to drill it all out but.... I'm going to make up an electric tarp deal,picked up some fabric at the Dollar Tree !
