  1. Thanks for the comments. I am about to start the stripes on it.
  2. That is amazing, how much you want for it. No really how much?
  3. Thanks its not as nice as I would like though.
  4. I used different gauges of electical wire that was solid core so I could bend it where I needed too. I am working on a drop axle for my other truck but this one I am trying to keep true to the origenal so no drop for it.
  5. Got some basic plumbing done. Thanks to all of those that gave me the links. One coat of primer and three coats of base and this is where I am at.
  6. Thanks guys so will be very usefull
  7. I need pics of yalls engines so as I can properly plumb this one in my logger. I have the ATM Ertl Pete so I know its a Cummins but beyond that I am unsure. THrow some pics my way.
  8. Here are some updated pics.
  9. That is going to be an awesome truck. I will take one of the loaders.
  10. That thing is wild looking. Cool truck!
  11. Would that be very noticeable? I need help figuring out how to paint the stripes on this thing. I have the Maroon base coat laid down and it has been drying for 3 days. How do I apply the orange and tape it all off? I am scared of painting this thin. I am seriously considering having someone else paint it.
  12. The engine does not fit between the radiator and the fire wall with either radiator.
  13. These are some updated pics. I have a mockup cab on it right now (not the one I am painting) I also scored a 3406B from a KenWorth model I have along with the new rear fenders.
  14. The thread on the blue truck is a couple of pages back.
  15. stacks n cracks .com Jim
  16. I will keep those in mind. To be true to the actual truck though I need a full set of 18 Italeri Peterbilt rims and tires as that is the style rim dads truck has. I would gladly pay if someone has a bunch of spares.
  17. No I am still not sure how I am going to do this. Painting is not my strongest suit. My uncle is a pro airbrusher that does Harley Tank work. I am actually thinking of sending the cab and stuff to him.
  18. On a side note, these tires are the most miserable I have ever seen to work with. THey are to big for the wheels. Anyone have a good set or a link to a good set that will work for me better?
  19. It is just the stock suspension that came with the KIT (AMT ERTL 359).
  20. This is my first attempt at frame streaching it sucks.
