  1. Started on the frame by adding 25 scale inches to it.
  2. Thanks Dave, yes Gary’s parts fit perfect !
  3. Bill looks like the boys on the shop floor did good job of making a new gear box. Your overall build is looking great. What are the cars that you are going to put on it?
  4. I’m adding another dump truck to the Super Bee Trucking fleet. This one is going to be a Mack DM 600 with a steel hood. I’m using Gary Wallace resin kit for the steel hood change out. The dump body will be a Montone from the Autocar dump truck kit. Colors will be matching with the Super Bee fleet.
  5. With this build I started up a new sister company to my Super Bee Trucking company. This one is Super Bee Transit Mixing with same paint system but different colors. I used to reissued KW/Challenge mixer kit and the Autocar dump truck kit to make this one up. There was very little modifications required for the change out. I did a WIP with the modifications. Next on my work bench will be a another Super Bee Trucking Mack DM 600 steel hood dump truck.
  6. I’ve been able to finish this one up and lined it up with its sister company. Thanks for everyone’s comments and support on my build here I appreciate them all. Check out more pictures in under glass.
  7. Your getting closer Bill and it just keeps getting better.
  8. Great progress Jeff. Looking at your reference picture are you going to be adding the window wiper on the passenger side window? I also see that they left the holes where the original head lights were.
  9. Thanks Carl Thanks Jeff. I got the DM 66 steel hood from Gary Wallace that has 14 parts just for the hood. It’s just like the DM 800 parts but shorten. Plus it’s a lot cheaper and I don’t have as many parts added to my parts boxes. My WIP for it is coming later today with pictures.
  10. I’ve finished the interior and working on details on the cab. This one is getting closer to finishing up. I’ve already decided on my next build and have received my resin parts for it. I’m adding another Super Bee dump truck to my fleet this one is going to be another Mack DM 600 but with the steel hood. Here’s my current progress pictures.
  11. Jeff it’s great to see your progress updates on your Autocar plow truck. Your attention to the little details are what makes your building awesome.
  12. Cool paint or decals! How did you do this? Looking forward to seeing your progress on your build. Welcome to the site to.
  13. Thanks Sam. I’ve got a couple more still in my stash to build but I’ve got to build some more cars first. lol ? Thanks Lucas Thanks Vincent. I’m always looking at the real ones on the road and still amazed at how low to the ground they are. Thanks Irwin.
  14. Excellent build on your Transtar.
  15. Excellent work on both cars Gareth! Any updates on the diorama to go with them?
  16. Awesome project Bill!
  17. Go with the sleeper and make it a fancy rig.
  18. Nice progress Johnny you have your REO looking good.
  19. Another excellent build you have started here Ken looking forward to seeing you build this one
  20. Awesome build Ken the red looks great.
  21. I’m just about finished with the mixer section and I built the engine for it. The kit does not provide any brackets for storing the extra chutes so I scratch built some and I’ve had to modify the platforms a little bit to because the fenders are not in the same location as the kit. Looks like I could of lengthen the frame about 20 scale inches but the rear axle spacing is bigger than the KW.
  22. Thanks Jeff Thanks Carl Thanks Bob
  23. Nice progress Bill I like your paint booth set up.
