Mopar - D

I’ve started working on the dump body and almost finished with it now. Also worked on the front grill adding a little chrome to it. I’m going to have to redo the hood sections. Thanks everyone for your comments I appreciate them.

Thanks Carl Thanks Jeff

Thanks Tommy Thanks Philippe Thanks Mario I’m working on another one for the collection now.

Looking awesome Jeff the paint really brings out your details that you have done.

I’ve been doing some more spray painting. I had some issues with the black paint staying on the resin parts. I must not of removed all the mold release. After stripping and repainting I’m good now. Working on the clear coats. Besides that I’ve finished the interior and starting on the dump body.

Thanks Steve I enjoy being creative with my builds glad your watching. Thanks Brian. I’ve ordered some more aggressive tires for the rear . Thanks Ken

Thanks Ken I’ve got the Mack and International mixers in my stash and I’m thinking about doing a Mack DM 600 steel hood with the Challenge mixer.

I agree with all of the reply’s awesome builds.

Nice looking Autocar.

Thanks Jeff. Yes I moved the axles in about a 1/4” to close up the big gap. I did the same with my other one to.

Wow there’s a lot of little details with converting the DM to a R type. I believe your right that it may of been easier to start with the R first.

I’ve been working on the engine and spraying the cab yellow. Also just a little mock up with the dump body from the other Mack

Awesome build Bill! Enjoyed following your WIB on this one

I’m in for another one. I just don’t know what I’m going to build yet.

Thanks David. You know I live in a new housing development that is still being built out and I’ve seen a lot of cement mixer’s where some are kept very clean and then there’s the ones that you wonder how they still run. I think some of it is how the company is run and how the drivers/operators use the truck and keep it clean.

Thanks Jeff I’m going for the working fleet truck looks. I’m thinking about adding one of these to the Super Bee Transit Mixing fleet with the Challenge mix. Thanks Scott. I’m watching your build mine is a little easier using Gary’s resin parts. Thanks Brian. I’ve been waiting for you to start another build.

Excellent build.

Thanks Stephen that’s the appearance I was going for with this one. Thanks Carl Thanks Brian I’m going to need a little lead time on your concrete request seeing it’s a bit of a drive from Texas to NC. lol Thanks Doug.

Thanks Ken Thanks Kerry Thanks Lucas Thanks Warren Thanks Larry

Thanks Jim Thanks Don looks like they already have a order. Thanks Bill I thought that to with the Autocar. Thanks Sam working on another one for the sister company lol. Thanks Dave

Pretty much finished with the frame and wheels for now. I’ve ordered some new tires for the rear from Moluminum. I’m also using front floatation tires I picked up on eBay. Here’s my mock up pictures.

I think it’s your computer they look great on my iPad. Excellent work.

Thanks Stephen. Actually this one is about a ten year in the working seeing that I build the red and blue Challenger’s about ten years or more ago. Lol.

Great looking Transtar in purple. It really stands out with the snow in the background.

Bill that’s going to a excellent display with the wing warriors on it. I see why you needed the extra length now. Those winged cars are long with their nose pieces.
