Hey guys i got pics im uploading as of now but im working on my DR kit and even though i have no idea about paint and etc... im at least getting things assembled and will have pics here in a bit ...i would like to find another set of wheels for this truck...for the rear drives are planned on another build and the front steers i dont care for all that much and would love to find a set of buds for it if anyone has a spare set?...on to the build pics....(come here in a bit for im uploading as of now!) Edit: Here is the wip start pic! The rest which is just pics of the tree's them selves can be found below vvvv http://s186.beta.photobucket.com/user/brady_381/library/Diamond%20Reo Comments & Criticism welcomed!

I would love to find a newstand somewhere near me that has mcm and just read the Doc vs. Old man article!...that would do my fix for a month or more!

as far as i know of revell never issued a 50' chev....i think that truck belongs to amt....but have been proven wrong a few times!

was it the street machine version w/ the inline 6?....thats amt...and there are a couple different issues of the same kit....

The 50 chev 3100 is amt (round 2) ...If your thinking of the Texaco one!?

Nice car so far!...Wish i had that kit but i dont!...I need to work on a couple of my nascar kits!... I have 2 Earnhardt cars (latest revell issues) i have DW's western auto kit i have the monogram Quaker state car and a couple rebuilders for later!

I have to ask about the dump box and all those goodies for it ....what are you going to do with them?...i think i may try to get ahold of it just to put on the back of my Diamond Reo or at least see if it will work?

Way cool little 389 ya got goin'!

x2

Watching this for sure!

Dont see many Diamond reo's being built or anything here or on other forums im on....Just looking for a little inspiration to come up with something or someway of building mine i just got yesterday for my bday from Jan.?!....so i just want to see what everyone else built to maybe give me some ideas on how to build mine....resin/scratch parts welcomed to!

Get ahold of Eric Jones over @ P and P vintage resins....He has an f650/800 resin conversion kit!...i have it to and im building a fire truck with it...

Happy Bday KAHUNA!!!
