  14. Looking good, Not sure but if you want to get it color matched take the cab to a paint supply store for automotive paints and they have a machine they can then try to determine "Exact/Close enough for Gov't work" color(s) to look for? I wonder what i did with my Cornbinder project? I was doing some custom stuff to it then disappeared b/w moves???

  18. Here is my "BRING BACK YOUR DEAD BUILD" hosted by the Snake himself, This kit started out as a box kit of a sba 377 with a Series 60 Leaktroit and i started modifying the fenders to a set forward axle instead of the sba, I will be Re-Powering it with a Cat 3406 i had in the parts box from an old Snap pete kit that i swapped out for a Leaktroit from an ALF Fire truck. Here is the kits contents as is- Partially started frame- 3406 Re-Power plant- Fenders have been made out of the kit fenders, but needs the hood built (Why i ordered some sheets of Plastruct), Might also have to find a new bumper for this kit? I think i got the pieces still maybe i can fix this issue of a wrongfully cut bumper??? Axles, I need to find the tie rod for it disappeared somewhere ??? Thanks for watching, Comments/Criticism welcomed!
