  1. Harry, your WIP's are always interesting and informative, I usually pick up a new or better way to detail things, I'll follow along too !
  2. I've had the duplicolor engine paint attack styrene plastic a few times unless its well primed
  3. found this when I was looking for reference for my 55-57 nomad to el camino projects, looks a bit like your project, I like it !
  4. I built the ROG KW dump truck recently and the sleeper was in the box, also have several of the wrecker kits and they all have the sleeper included too
  5. I tried Renault then VW and a picture of an old VW ad showed up comparing it to two other cars and there it was ! Wasn't thinking Ford at all til I saw the blue oval on the grill in that ad. It's interesting looking at all the cars while searching but you can sure kill a lot of time doing it !
  6. I got it ! proof once again even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.
  7. I really like this style Bronco, have owned a couple real ones and have another real one to rebuild someday so I took a chance on one of these resin bodies. I'm not really pleased with it, kinda rough, gonna take a lot of work to be nice. I have purchased some other resins that are really nice for this kind of money. I don't know much about resin casting but it sure looks like the master could be really nice with some more work and a new mold made ? I know there is a market for these !
  8. Very nice rig JT, it did need the extra length too, looks right now. The paint looks great too, but the driver needs to get out and work on her tan, she's looking a bit pale from too much time in the cab !
  9. I have a piece of Detail Master DM-2585 rectangle style grill photo etch that looks pretty close to what you want, the holes are approx. 1mm x 3mm the whole piece is 90mm x 48mm, should be big enough to make a truck grill. $9.95 on detailmaster.com. Found mine at the hobby store the other day.
  10. Another nice one Harry, great job !
  11. Very nice work blending those together, Outstanding !
  12. Drones are going to be a big reality in agriculture very soon, I know of some farmers and also seed and chemical suppliers will be using them for scouting purposes this season, one of my neighbors already has one, and they will be used for chemical applications in the very near future. But... out here in the wide open spaces is a whole lot different than delivering packages in urban areas !

    Ice "T"

    Very nice ! I like the details you've added and the rear wheels are really cool
  14. Very nice, and I Really like that gold, great paint color !
  15. The "John Deere" is obviously built only for tractor pulling, it's not a real agricultural tractor. While I'm not sure what class its pulling in it likely only weighs between 4 and 5 ton depending on it's class rules, the steam traction engine on the other hand weighs at least 13 tons or more when comparing it to similar ones I have seen. A modern farm tractor of the same weight would be whole different story, Still a cool funny video and I'm glad you shared it with us.
