  1. Great work on the doors! Tim
  2. Jeremy Looking forward to the pictures. Tim
  3. Brian.. wouldn't that be cool! A time machine to take photos. Tim
  4. Jarius Driven.. yup! Occasionally I run out of gas, but then right back at it ! Tim
  5. Cool idea! Keep posting pics as you make progress. Tim
  6. The Count: 272 on the shelves including tractor, trailer, dolly and dioramas. Add to that 7 that I built as contract builds that aren't here anymore. Tim
  7. Hang on.. I'll have to go count. Tim (5:20pm)
  8. Nice stretch job ! Tim
  9. I like that color. Tim
  10. These frigid temps have put my workbench at a standstill too. Nice project on the 359 rebuild. Tim
  11. Frank Gortsema used to cast a resin Diamond T similar to this truck. Rick Mark owns Frank's masters now and should be back selling his fine resin products sometime this summer. Tim
  12. Jim For TruckModeler.com it's easier to just type www.truckmodeler.com ! Thanks for the plug. Tim
  13. Exactly as a 359 should look! Unmolested, not bestowed with a zillion doodads and vinyl. Tim
  14. The cab that STS sells is a direct fit for the Revell kits. Otherwise you would have to cut out the backwall and make a new wall and window opening.. or use an AMT 359 cab, cut it up and use the AMT backwall. Easiest route would be Spaulding's cab. The frame decals for a 359 would be pretty simple, "do not weld or drill" type logos found in several kits including the Can-Do. The multi-decal warning stickers didn't appear until around '00. If you're looking for modern logos, go to Timhttp://tahlborn.web.aplus.net/vacation1.htm and scroll down, I have several posted that you can save/scale down and print. Tim
  15. Given RC2's current "please someone buy our AMT/Ertl line" I highly doubt we'll be seeing any new reissues for a long time. Tim :cry:
  16. Doc This Mack will be cool ! Tim
  17. Your 377 SFFA looks right at home pulling this! Tim
  18. What an impressive combo this will be! Tim
  19. Looks really nice. I want to try a roll-off sometime. Tim
  20. Josh The National Geographic Channel program was entertaining. I could have used less non-factory stuff. The Walcott Iowa80 truckstop parts could have been used to make a show just on Iowa80. I did find it interesting that the program spoke only of the 387 yet always showed 379s at shows. Tim
  21. Jim I use the BMF Chrome not the Bright or Ultra? chrome. The good old Chrome (original) works best for me. The other seems to tear easily. Tim
