Very nice work Dave, I like the colors and paint scheme. Doug

I have the Mack B-61 from AITM. It's a very nice kit, the castings are smooth and clean. Dave Natale of AITM also has a complete frame kit tandem drive, with the fuel tanks, battery boxes, wheels/tires axles etc., and a complete truck kit with a single drive frame. Dave is very good to deal with too, excellent service and products.

Some of you may have seen this website and some might have not. Anyway check it out, many great photos of trucks. Here's the link; http://www.heavytruckphotos.com/index.html Doug

Excellent job!!

Lots of cabovers! All the conversions look great. You'll be busy for a while William.

Kurt, Thanks for sharing your photos with us. I really enjoyed them and love Lou models. Glad you had such an awsome experience on your trip. Lou had a great collection of models and was a great builder. Thanks again. Doug

Wow, it's been 20 years since Kuenn started his model building business! (Read that on his Facebook page.) He has built alot of nice models over the years, cool! Those 1/16th scale models cover alot of shelf space.

Yes, those big Kenworths would make great models. By the way, both Kenworths are not C500s, those are 963s, spec'd much heavier then a C500. Notice the hood, fenders, head lights, and grill shape, the grill is shaped like a wedge with the vertical Kenworth name plate in the middle.

Outstanding work Mark! Are you going to put a sleeper on it and if so will it be a Pete hi-rise or flat top, or? Again great work!

Oh ok thanks Jim. I can't believe I forgot about the AITM Superliner kit!

Gordon your trailer looks excellent, very nice work on the super dog and dump trailer. Jim, don't you mean the Gary Wallace half round dump trailer kit, or is AITM coming out with a half round trailer kit? Doug

Great work on both engines William. Doug

Nice job JT, kit bashing always makes for a great creation! Doug

You said I Kurt. I like the "older" non aero-dynamic trucks more too.

Great work George, you did an excellent job, I like it.

Nice work on the Star JT.

Chris, Check with Gary Wallace of GW Trucks, (gwtrucks@yahoo.com). He dose not have a website, but he can mail a list of his products to you. His products are great.

WOW is right! That will be a masterpiece for sure.

What a project! Nice start too. As said above, that will be HUGE!! Doug

Nice job on the KW and scratchbuilt van trailer.

Very nice work JT. How long did it take you to build the whole project wrecker bed and all. It looks great. Doug

JT, Nice job on the Pete and trailer too. I think Jerry is a member here. He has alot of great decals, that must be your truck on his website. Nice job. Doug

Hi all, I was looking on ebay today and found the Revell of Germany Kenworth Dump Truck as a reissue!! I've listed the link below. I have the original that was out back in the 90s. I made a search on the net and found sereval on line model dealers have this kit shown for a late Nov. release. This is very good news. Has anyone else heard any news about this. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SEALED-REVELL-Kenworth-Dump-Truck-07406-1-25-Model-Kit-/300806533616?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item46097771f0 Doug

Bill, The trailer looks awsome! Very nice work. Any plans for a load? Doug

Tony, The trailer only carries 20' containers. I'm guessing the reason for the sliding axles and suspension is to keep the trailer from "hopping or bouncing" when the trailer is loaded with an empty container or empty with no container. Possibly the axles are made to slide to support the weight of the load, depending on how much cargo is in the container, same as the sliding tandams on a 48' reefer or dry van are used. I've never heard these trailers refered to as extenable. They are not really extending, the axles/suspension just slide back and forth. Anyone else know anything about the use of the sliding axles on these trailers? Doug
