That looks great, Bill!

Great looking trailers.

Nice job on the AeroChief. Well done. Good luck with the MAN.

Nicely done. I like it.

Nice looking boat. Looks good hooked up to the Chevrolet.

Thanks, Graham.

Thanks, Gareth. We don't see them at all here in the US.

I have Testors liquid cement.

Those are good ideas. I'll give them a try. My big concern is the large rectangular mounting holes in the frame. I suppose styrene rectangular stock would work.

I am modifying the AMT Chevrolet Bison, and I do not need some of the mounting holes that come in the frame rails. What is the best way to fill those holes? Thanks.

Really nice looking Chrysler. Well done.

Looking pretty good so far. Sorry to hear about the leg.

Very nice job on the Spirit of St. Louis. Well done.

Interesting. I didn't know that. Back when I was watching NASCAR, all the races were on paved tracks.

Yes, it's mildly annoying, to say the least.

I had a feeling that it might be something like that.

I haven't watched NASCAR in a long time, so I have been "out of the loop" so to speak. Since when has NASCAR run on dirt? What are they trying to do, get back to their roots?

That's a great looking Ford. Well done.

Thanks, Peter. This model is curbside, but I don't think that really detracts from the kit. The headlights do have lenses. They are the full wrap-around style (like most modern cars). The glass is very thin & super clear, so it doesn't show up well in the photos, but I assure you that it's there.

Thanks, Jim.

Thanks for the positive comments, guys. Håkan, I like how you said "the US and California" like they are two different places. That's funny. I haven't been out West much. Couple of trips to LA & a week in Las Vegas. That's about it.

Thanks for the positive feedback, guys. I appreciate it. Thank you for the information, Force. I had a feeling they were something like that. I remember back in the 1970s here in the US, trucks had to drive about 10mph slower than cars on the Interstate highways. It's not that way now, as far as I know.

Here is my Revell of Germany 2008(ish) DAF XF105 Space Cab. I really enjoyed this kit, for the most part; and the hardest part was assembling & mounting the cab. Guess I just need more experience with Italeri/Revell cabs as this is only my second one. The color is Testors Extreme Lacquer Daytona Yellow. Any errors that you see are solely mine, and nothing to do with the kit. Since DAF is a Dutch company, I figured that I'd use the plated from The Netherlands. Seemed appropriate. Now, can one of our European modelers tell me what the "70" & "80" on the back of the cab are for? Are they some sort of speed restriction? 80kph doesn't seem very fast for a highway. Here are some shots of the interior before I sealed it up in the cab: Thanks for looking.

You can check with Dave at AITM. I don't think they are shown on his Website, but if you contact him, he might have something.

Looks fantastic!
