Great looking Corvette! Well done.

I've had good luck with Scalehobbyist

The Revell W900 is a 1972-1982, but it does have the 8-bag suspension. The AMT T600 is a 1990-94 cab/hood/sleeper with a 1970s frame, suspension, engine, & interior. It needs a lot of work to make it correct. Essentially what AMT did was took a T600 cab/hood/sleeper and stuck it on their W923 frame.

I've never built the Revell T600, but I understand it's a 1986-89 T600A. Perhaps some other builders can chime in on how accurate it is. It has to be better than the AMT T600. Good luck with your project.

That's really cool!

Converting a 1970s W900 to a 1990s (or later) T800 will require some work, but I know the Gary Wallace of GW Trucks (gwtrucks@yahoo.com) does make the T800 hood/fenders, cab & front suspension corrections. Not sure about that sleeper, though.

That's really cool. Well done.

Very well done.

Nice job on the Chevy. Well done.

Great looking Chevelle. Well done.

This isn't a Gen 6 Camaro?

Great looking Silverado. Lot's of changes on this one. Are the bed rails & tailgate net part of a kit?

Great looking New Yorker. With fins like that, you'd think it would fly! ?

Looking nice. The Detroit Diesel fit under there well.

Very well done.

Nice looking Bonneville. Is it missing a valve cover?

Great looking Thunderbird. Very well done.

That's entirely possible. These guys these were working on a highway project, so the might work in the oilfield industry as well.

I don't think they were CNG tanks as they were integrated with the cabs. At least on the ones I saw. They weren't the big 60" bunks, though. Probably more like 36" or 48". It was hard to tell.

Good point. Probably see some of these in Montana & Alaska. Not so much Rhode Island. ?

Great looking Volvo. Italeri kits are nice, but I really struggle with the cabs. Probably just a lack of experience.

I recently returned from a trip to Dallas, TX, with the High School Robotics Team where they were participating in the VEX World Robotics Championships. In our daily commute from where we were staying in Garland to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas we traveled on the construction site that is also know as I-635. Being a truck modeler I was particularly interested in the equipment being used, and one thing I noticed was that most (if not all) of the dump trucks being used on the site had sleeper cabs. My first thought was that they might have been tractors converted to dump trucks, but I don't think that's the case as it appeared to be across manufactures & companies. I wish I had gotten some decent shots. Perhaps someone from Texas could explain why they do this. Thanks.

Very nice looking Charger. Well done.

Nice job in such a small (for automotive modeling) scale. Sometimes 1/32 kit can look really "toy-like".

Really nice looking Nova. Well done.

Great looking delivery truck. We'll done.
