Nice build. I like the P51D...it's the hot rod of the air.

Nice. It doesn't have to be dead on perfect to be a good shelf model...and everyone will for sure recognize it anyway. ? East bound and down loaded up and truckin'... ?

Yeah, the Aussie KW looks good, I like the K series COE's and most of the T series conventionals, they have a massive look to them.

In that case it would be easier to 3D print the whole dash panel...it's for sure easy for those who have knowledge of CAD or some similar 3D program and the print can be done at Shapeways. I don't know of anything that looks like that in another model unfortunately.

Absolutely stunning.

Moebius has two sets with super singles, one set with two steer wheels and four rear wheels, and one set with four trailer wheels: Otherwise Jamie at Moluminum, KJ at Double Take Replicas, Auslowe and KFS also has wide floatation steer wheels in resin, check them out if you want to get only two wheels for the front axle.

You have to add 17 to your 20, the 1:25 Peterbilt 359 and Kenworth W900 Aerodyne snap kits were listed as new in the 1982 Monogram catalog and later issued under the Revell name...so it's 37 years since they were first issued. Time flies.

I like it a lot.

A small block Ford engine is tiny in the real world too...the outside dimensions of a 221-260-289-302 is approximately 27.5" long including a short waterpump, 18.75" wide and 20.75" high, the 351 Windsor wich is from the same family is the same 27.5" length, but 2.25" wider at 21" as the deck on the 351 is taller, and it's 23.75" high.

And got rid of those much too shallow rear wheels.

The wheelbase should be the same, the "Big Stick" wrecker body is the same for both the T-522 Unilite small window cab based wrecker from 1972 with the Detroit 8V-71 and the later T-533 1100 Series cab based wrecker with the Cummins NTC from 1977 forward. The original T-522 wrecker kit has never been re-issued as far as I know but the later T-533 kit has been out four times before and five with this one.

It's 6 years since the Will-Do was issued (2013) so one would think it's about time for another re-issue...but it looks like we have to wait a bit more. Both the Can-Do and Will-Do fetches a lot of money on "the auction place" like most of the other Revell Germany truck and trailer kits do so it looks like the demand is larger than the supply.

Nice start, I will follow this.

Yep finally, unfortunately we don't have TV coverage of the NHRA series over here but I followed the live timing on the NHRA website the whole race, I also watched the NASCAR race on TV at the same time IMO one of the best and closest races so far this year, and I watched the F1 race earlier on the day wich also was a good one...not the outcome I would have liked to see but a good race anyway...so it was a good sunday. Well enough about that...I'm very impressed of your skills and the model will be a killer when it's finished, thanks for sharing it with us.

I'm speechless.

Very tasteful build.

Even with these Coca Cola branded kits and the revenue they will generate I don't think we will see an all new tooling automotive kit from Round2 any time soon...I hope I'm wrong but that's my gut feeling. I don't mind if they do Coca Cola branded kits now and then as I most likely woun't use the decals anyway, if it's a kit I want I'll buy it regardless. But it gets a bit boring when 15-16 of their announced kits the last couple of years are Coke branded...plus the Coke decal parts pack...so it doesn't make me jump up in the air of joy when I hear Chad say " and we have the so and so kit with Coca Cola decals, vending machines and dolly" in the videos...especially when I already have the kit in question from an earlier release.

It means that all are FE engines then because the SOHC is based on a FE too, but they are quite crude representations if I may say. The red and blue engines has the engine mounts where the oil filter should go.

Well a small block has four bolts holding the valve covers, two on top and two on the bottom...the kit covers looks to have three on the bottom...even that is wrong as a big block has four on the bottom and three on top. MPC hasn't been known to do absolutely correct kits and this one is not an exception.

Revell Germany did a couple race only truck kits from the European Truck Racing Series in the 90's. The Mercedes-Benz 1450 LS came in 1991, two kits with decals to do two versions #7536 S Parrish or G Mekle and #7535 Th Hegmann or J Krasznai. The MAN Phoenix came in 1992, same there, two kits with decals to do two versions each, #7544 G Körber or M Santos and #7540 C Göransson or R Schmitt. I don't think any of them were reissued but you might find one on ebay.

The 23 Model T looks interesting.

Yes, nice build of the Mk IV. LeMans Miniatures has nice wheels for most of the GT40 kits and I have bought a couple of sets for my kits.

I'm not even sure the kit engine is a 350 because all Chevy Generation 1 small block engines looks pretty much the same on the outside. This engine looks more like a 396-454 big block if you go by the evenly spaced exhaust ports and the valve covers, the intake manifold is not Chevy at all as the intake ports should be siamesed even on the big block, so it looks more like Ford or Mopar Hemi. Your engine choice looks a lot better and more correct and you did a good job.

As far as I know Molotow has replacement tips.

Nice.
