Thanks, i was pretty happy with the way it turned out. I'm not sure what number the kit was as i no longer have the box,but it wasn't a great kit which is why I ended up building it with so many mods lol

My custom Caddy from the Revell kit. Custom flat floor,opening suicide doors,bonnet,boot custom engine bay,scratch built chassis. Chopped the roof and built a custom interior

Finally got this one finished a few months back after nearly 17 months of building. Very few parts on this were from a kit, so all the scratchbuilding kept me pretty busy. Comments good or bad welcome.

Thanks anyways Charlie, I still havent had any luck either.Im sure Ill find out sometime.

Thanks Rick,I have seen that one before and forgot about it until now, it is a bit of help.

Thanks, I am always lookin for info on it so Im sure Ill find out. All I have is the old black and white brochures from the Mack museum which as helpful as they are,dont list colors.

Hey guys, its been a while since I have been onto the forum as I have been too busy. Anyways this one is coming along nicely now after the past few months. Its been quite a challenge as I have had to scratchbuild so many parts because I couldnt find the right stuf anywhere. I will be posting pics of its progress shortly. I am hoping somebody can tell me what colour the NH-600 Cummins was painted. All I can find is black and white pictures of those engines. Any help is appreciated, thanks guys. Take care.

Very nice. Good to see another oldie.

This is looking great so far. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Absolutely stunning, this is coming along great. Very nice work.

If you want to see good weathering,look for threads here started by Muleskinner. He has done some very realistic weathering.

I'm pickin up good vibrations..... Great job, that is really cool. Very different.

Man that is one sweet looking Vette,great colours

Thanks Ryan, I have noticed all the mold lines etc, no troubles there smoothing them out, I just finished the Revell 58 Chev and had to smooth all the mold lines on that one too. Those Revell kits are really nice to work with though.

Nice build,I like the subtlety of the 50s customs and this one fits right in.

I reckon this is gonna look tough as,nice work so far,I'll be looking forward to updates...

You are a show off!!!! Lol,just kidding, gotta be pretty happy with all those. Looks like you are gonna be one busy modeller!!

Very nice look for the old Merc, that colour is spot on. I am just about to start one of these myself. Are there any little problems with fit you have found when coming to assembling it?

Besides building model trucks and cars,my only other real hobby is drawing cars,trucks,pin up girls and portraits. Having two kids under two and another on the way kinda limits my free time.

Lookin good.

Ohhhh yeah, love seeing a nice wagon. Great work.

Great job. I can picture Arnie behind the wheel and Richie Valens singin Come on lets go blastin outta the radio!!!

What acool lookin rat!! Great work.

Great work. You should build Gibbs' yellow Challenger to keep it company!!

Very nice work. Love the idea of a stock build and vinyl roof. Quite uncommon these days to see older cars in stock form. What did you use for the vinyl?
