  1. I was going to say hey stop fooling us, we all know thats a real truck! lol awesome looking reo
  2. how bout a drivers side full shot of that thing?? Looks real good
  3. I like that dodge cant even tell you shortened it, Looks good and gave me a idea on how to shorten my lonestar.
  4. The Name Extreme Madness comes from the fact that a 2011 lonestar will set you back between 130-180,000 dollars to then build a pulling truck out of one would set you back another 150-200 grand so to build one you must be extremely insane and have a heck of a job lol, I figure if i cant build the real one, ill build a smaller verison
  5. Idea im tinkering with of maybe building, Twin stacks, full fenders kta-600 cummins powered lnternational Lonestar Modified pulling semi, give me your input and if this is your truck sorry just wanted to play around and get a few ideas please dont hate me. I would have to add full fenders twin stacks pulling hitch weights etc but its a start (Done on paint)
  6. Well this is the 4th time i have attempted to pull this model kit off and i think this time it actually will get done, plans include a fully wired engine, transmission blanket, blower hold down and maybe a few other goodies, also glued the top main hitch to the frame so the hitch wont break when hooked to the sled, still a work in progress but is slowly coming along, sorry for the crappy pics my digital camera took a dump on me
  7. Wow that is a sweet Magnum but now you have no room for the amp guitar surfboard ladder and 12 2x4s LOL
  8. got a few things painted and wanted to do a test fit to make sure everything fits right and looks like it should all fit properly
  9. Well lets see if the 3rd time i can actually finish this thing!
  10. i havent been here for ages been playing around in die cast had the chance to build a way off the wall pickup and decided to go with this, 1958 studabaker body full custom frame, drive shaft loops rear bump stops, front casters etc, i think it turned out pretty cool and maybe have a chance at building some decent plastic model kits, leave me your thoughts please
  11. Well i never though i would come this far on a model but my model just about done,have to clear coat it put decals on it install the windows and paint on more thing but its almost done. Unfortantly i had to make a new bed cover the old one got ruined and i lost the distributor but i tryed to fix it. Hope you guys like it
  12. Ok this is a stupid question but can i post pictures of my custom 1/64th scale pulling vehicles i have made? Anyone intrested in seeing my other hobbie????
  13. Well Im at a stand still right now waiting on front tires to get here, have to buy flat black spray paint find a hood since when i striped mine it kinda melted, have to install the windows put decals on and hopefully clear coat her but here she is at the present time. I think it looks good for a first time modeler hope you guys like leave comments or what have ya

  19. Im new here and been into truck and tractor pulling my whole life so what better kit then to do then the Orange Blossom Special By amt. I just started this kit and have taken pictures as im moving along. If you see anything i screwed up on please let me know sorry my pictures are not that great only camera i have is my cell phone camera. Another thing this kit did not come with the right front wheels so unless i find a extra set looks like these will be used. Nothing except the frame is glued just wanted to do a check and see how things are going to fit
