Yes

I will be 52 this fall, if I make it. Picking up bottles was a good way to ride to one of the stores around my house and get candy bars, gum and Pop ( we didn't call it soda back then). Well growing up 1 mile north of the MI OH line was a problem sometimes. We didn't know as 11 and 12 year old kids the difference between the 2 different bottles so you would ride to the store and grab as many bottles as you could in the mile plus long ride to cash these baby's in. On a good day you could get 2 or 3 bucks between all the kids but what do you do with all the OH bottles. We were not allowed to ride into OH from our house, so in the garbage can in front of the store. Once the 10 cent deposit hit (Dec 78)the ditches were clean of MI returnables only the Art Magazines and garbage could be found.

Tom I found a similar one of those trucks.

Mark, The Micro-balloons are just filler. You just add it to the glue to thicken it up. For small lines some guys just use super glue gel and sand it down. Stop into the local parts store and pick up 2 part Bondo for the bigger sink marks.

That looks great Carl.

Cale that looks like a camera to me. This is very nice.

That is nice Tim. I like the second wheels better, even though I cringed when I was reading you changed them.

sure looks good.

I hope these are the correct truck. Pictures from the web.

Tom is that the truck? That is cool.

That is some nice work.

Well done.

Thanks for that added info Chuck. I was thinking that the truck was an MPC for some reason, should have double checked before I typed.

The snow plow looks like a copy from an old kit, that is now in the GMC truck. I think it started in a Jeepster kit.

Gary start with the 40 Ford until you get stumped then go to the 34. I say build the 34 with an Olds or a caddy like they did back in the day.

Very nice work. The burnt tires look great as does the rest of it.

Great idea. Old School Rod Are you going to use glue from the sixties also? LOL

So the start date is next November? LOL

Or that fast. This is cool. When are you starting on it?

Outstanding work.

Pat it looks the kits that you would need to combine are around from 30 bucks each to stupid money. That is not even including shipping. It would be nice to see you build this though.

I like it.

That is true. They did take the burden of a cash reserve they had sitting away. Yes Luc you are correct , the blame is all on management, in all most all of these cases.
