    ..........sprinkled on some Maxidyne Gold ,,,have to detail paint/ add wiring-alternator and some other bits ..................I'm going with polished aluminum round fuel tanks I think that will go well with the red frame/red cab-black fenders/black dump body . The frame is stretched and reinforced with c channel inserts ,,just have to dab some filler on the parting lines,, probably add a crossmember in there too

    Ok,so everything seems pretty good so far,the 675 should fit no problem,the B fits good on the R chassis and I can use the R cab mounts.I narrowed down the R's radiator so it would fit the B's radiator shell,,I filled the gaps on both ends with thin Evergreen sheet and trimmed to the same profile as the rad. Initial measurement for the dump body to cab clearance allowing for the stack and everything shows just a bit of frame lengthening might be needed. I may go with the round fuel tanks with the steps built in that are in the R's kit,,not sure yet . I have 6 spoke Auslowe wheels for this and Jamie's tires. I decided to go with a red cab/black fenders,black dump body and red frame. Going to try and do my own "gold leaf" decals . I have Model Car Garage piano hinge for the butterfly hood,, that should challenge my eyesight! lol

    Starting the next project Global Scale's B-61 and I'm using the Montone dump body from the Autocar , I might do it as a "repower" with a ENDT675 if the turbo clears,,I have some parts and some in the pipeline. Thinking black with a red frame or maroon/burgundy with a black frame and gold lettering/pinstripes. See what happens...........
