  1. Great looking BMW. really well done.
  2. Beautiful Ford. Really well done.
  3. Great looking VW. Really well done.
  4. Maybe the '57 T-bird. Wonder how the fit is?
  5. Caterpillar 3406A for a 1986 Peterbilt 359-119 (2007) Cummins NTC-350 for a 1980 Kenworth W900 (2010) Mack ENDT675 for a 1975 Mack R685ST (2011) Mack ENDT676 for a 1976 Mack Cruiseliner (2011) International MaxxForce15 for a 2011 International LoneStar (2001) Deutz F6L for a 1980s Iveco-Magirus 140 25 DLK 23-12 Autoscala (2018) Chevrolet Thriftmaster I6 for 1941 Chevrolet A/K 1/2-ton (2018) Also put one of these in a 1938 Chevrolet Business Coupé (2023) Detroit Diesel 6V92T for a 1976 Chevrolet Bison (2021) Buick 3.8L Turbocharged V6 for 1987 Buick Grand National (2021) That's all I have photos for, although I did put a Cummins NH250 in a 1971 Autocar A64B (2022).
  6. Looks nice. Sure are a lot of stickers on the truck!
  7. That's one lean looking Mustang. Fantastic job.
  8. Beautiful Corvette. It really looks great in the Maroon.
  9. Great build. Interesting looking car. Sort of look like a cross between an ax head and a greenhouse.
  10. Oddly, Yellow Freight always had orange tractors. It was called Swamp Holly Orange, and it was supposed to by more visible.
  11. Didn't Yellow merge with Roadway back about 10 years ago or so?
  12. Great looking CF tractor. Very well done.
  13. Nicely done.
  14. Great looking Lamborghini. Really well done.
  15. That's awesome! Very well done.
  16. It looks like Yellow Trucking will be no more: After $700 Million U.S. Bailout, Trucking Firm Is Shutting Down (yahoo.com) This could be bad. Wonder who's going to pick up the slack? Swift? England?
  17. I think I've only done three Monogram 1/24 kits so far. Built this Mack AC in March 2019: Then this 1964 Pontiac GTO back in January 2020: Ok, that's kind of blurry. And finally this Buick Regal Grand National in March 2021:
  18. Great looking Kawasaki. Very well done.
  19. Great looking Lincoln.
  20. I think we've all experienced this at one time or another.
  21. The engine in the kit is supposed to be a Caterpillar 3208, but it's actually an older 1160. This might help with your detailing of the engine: CM09 Sept 1991 Caterpillar 3208 diesel album | Dutch Model Truck Club | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy. In this era Ford, the engine would either be Ford Blue, or Cat Yellow, but predominantly Ford Blue.
  22. I have used tire decals on a couple of models, and I have to say that I was skeptical at first. However, that being said, I think they can ass a lot to a race car model. Here is my Revell 2015 Corvette C7.R with the Michelin dire decals similar to the ones in the Revell Ford GT kit: I didn't prep the tire in any way (which I might regret later), and I did mount the tire to the wheel prior to adding the decals.
