TUFF TIN

In 1956, my high school band from Bellingham, Washington was selected to march in the Rose Bowl Parade on New Years Day 1957. It was a great 13 day trip but most of all we had 3 Scenicruiser busses. They were running from Chicago to Los Angeles at the time as they were brand new but my dad worked for Greyhound and made a deal to get the 3 busses for our trip. Had to be a great PR item as Bellingham is near the Canadian border and no one north of LA had seen these.. Still a very vivid memory for me. Good luck with your model. Mike

WOW! What a great build!

Well sir........................I really like the 3rd unit. The color doesn't appear as dull. Mike

These were on the CTEMBC board. Mike Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki

I posted 3 pictures for you on "The Truckstop" site. Mike

There is no such thing as a stupid question. There is, however, from time to time stupid answers but none here. Mike

Any of the early kits will make a good logger for you. The first thing that you must do is extend the frame behind the drive tires. This makes the Peerless Log Trailer steer correctly. Everything else is primarily kit buys. Mike

I truly wish that I had your talents. Great build. Mike

I can no longer remember the name but these were originally built in Lyons, Oregon and hauled lumber up and down I-5. Someone on here should know something Mike

Love the colors. Mike

Nice to see something built out of the main stream. Kind of what could have been. Mike

Thank You. Mike

Where did you get the nose piece in the narrow style? Mike

Beautiful! Mike

That Haulaway Hauler would be just right. Mike

WOW! Mike

Good looking unit. Mike

I absolutely love it. Mike

Just in case you don't know...........Tim's word is straight from the Bible. No one has done more Peterbilts than Tim has and he does them very well. Listen to his remarks as he can be a big help to you. Mike

Looks great. Even has the Canadian appeal. Mike

Q-Tip..............that's what they call the old folks here in Arizona because they have white hair and white tennis shoes. lol Mike

When I first built the glider, many modelers had no idea what it was. I came from the Northwest and logging is my roots and we built up several gliders. Even Gordon Fast Frieght built a couple of walk-in KW sleepers in 1976. Hosted on Fotki Pair of Peterbilt gliders bundles up. Hosted on Fotki

You can pick your own wheelbase with my KW Glider . Hosted on Fotki Even strapped on a brand new fifth wheel. Hosted on Fotki Mike

You did a great job of building a hauler of political promises. Mike

That's a great looking GI rig. Mike
