    here's another thought for you--I just swapped the air ride on the Pete coe with a spring setup from the parts bin. Jerry

    as usual Tim, :mrgreen: :shock: :shock: :mrgreen: WOW!!!! Jerry

    as far as I know, you could interchange most of these except- the mack suspension is strictly Mack only, the paystar has a good spring susp. except for the IH markings, and the A-car --that's the only kit I've seen the has that suspension. The rest--I don't see much of a problem. Jerry

    Tim, a suggestion--- maybe a hotshot??? just a thought. :roll: :roll: :roll: Jerry

    "borrowed" the v8 from a long departed DM800. I thought it looked better than the 6 banger. Jerry

    Dave, can't wait to see some updates. That monster is looking good so far. Jerry

    thanks guys. it's doubtful I'll have it done by the 4th. the stars, believe it or not, are the peel and stick painted white. the drum, on the other hand, was a pain to mask. trying to get the right distance-- :x :x . I did the best I could, however. hope ya'll enjoy the finished product. Jerry

    Dave, this is the Revell kit with the Sacramento Trucking decals. The reefer came from the Italeri 53' reefer with Texas Longhorn decals. The Watkins is some leftover stock I've had. (original instead of Gooche) Jerry

    pretty much box stock except changed tires to the old Goodyears, BMF, relocated taillites and added the reefer and Fruehauf mudfllaps. Jerry

    still have all the parts. I've got lots of parts from destroyed trucks, rebuilds, parts buys (e-bay) never know when you're gonna need a particular part. not to mention, I've been building on and off for the last 30+ years. Jerry

    here we go... the front tires are from the 1/16th Mustang :roll: Jerry

    Scot, as far as detail, I haven't mastered that point yet, but color wise, I'm going with white w/blue fenders and the mixer parts is just a bit more complicated. (plus it's a surprise ) I should have more pics towards the weekend. Jerry

    got the paint on the cab & mixer, frame assembled, axles on, including air ride tag. I'm using the extra suspension that is in the paystar kit ( I believe for the dm800 mixer) instead of the standard air ride. will post pics later this week. Jerry

    thanks Tim. Between your site and Hank's, there's a lot of insiration to be found. Jerry

    thanks guys. the biggest problem I had with this on is the awful cab seam. the original owner didn't do a good job on it, so I had to take it apart, sand, and putty it. I never have liked the way AMT designed it, but I like the kit. Once again, thanks for the comments. Jerry

    I can't complain tooo much--I just picked up this up-- 50 greenbacks plus shipping. Not too bad considering I was the ONLY bidder on this and I haven't seen it any any of my LHS. Jerry
