Finally done! More pics in the Under Glass section.

Finally finished this one! Only took me 6 months from my last post to finish it! HA HA

Well finally decided to start working on this one again. Stopped because I knew I would have to paint all 200 of those chicken lights!

That is sweet!

Testors huggar orange and gloss black. Guess it will be my version of the Harley Davidson edition!

Small update, finally got it out of the paint booth and now all the detailing and polishing can begin!

Donovan, I robbed them from the Revell Germany Western Life Pete 353. Guess it would have been easier to just use that kit, but got other plans for that one.

Thanks Bob, yeah I just heated up the leaf springs and pushed them closer to the frame just like the old school hot rodders and low riders used to do

Cool. Go there all the time, race RC cars in Hayes.

Gordon, it's the Revell of Germany heavy duty trailer. Mike, I used 3/8" Evergreen tube that slides right over most stock pipes with a little sanding. I then cover them with BMF. Thanks again for the compliments.

Thanks everyone, Chad the stacks are pretty easy, I actually sand down the original stacks until they fit inside plastic tube then cover them in BMF.

Thanks Jim, yes got the rear fenders and rack from AITM.

One day it will haul a Cat but for now it's a General:

Just finished this one up recently:

Small update, just got the motor squeezed in and on to the paintshop!

Looks great Ken, seen those police cars many times on my journeys to Norfolk.

Yeah the one time I read the instructions they are wrong! I switched them around before I put the seats in.

Well figured I would throw my hat into the mix. Enough has been said about the instructions, but I think Dave's Smugmug site with the pictures was a big help! I know in my house I've been accused of not ready instructions and with this model you've really got the read the manual versus just look at the pictures. OK, enough of that..............

Looks great, the CD in the player is a nice touch! can't wait to get my hands on one of these.

That's a good one too Leo. I use this one: http://www.printmini.com/calc.shtml

Great info John! Wish I would have waited to start mine and this could have saved me some time!

Like the Lonestar peeking over the box!

Awesome work! Always great to see a nice looking trailer with a great rig.

Thanks for the kind words. Just got back into truck building and still learning. Great examples and inspiration on this board.
