  1. Very nice looking K100. Well done.
  2. Very nice looking F-150. Very well done.
  3. Very nice looking General, Jason. Well done.
  4. I tell people who are "so proud" that they own an electric car that their car runs on coal. They don't seem to like that fact! ?
  5. Looks like I better get mine soon. I don't want to pay extra for decals I'm just going to toss.
  6. Angel, yes, I cut the frame down be 48mm (1-7/8"). Thanks for the complement. Instructions actually call for the cab & frame to be painted black, but I like the blue better. Thanks, Bill. Thanks, Chris. Thanks, Jason.
  7. Thanks, guys. I appreciate the comments.
  8. Very nice car. Well done. What scale is this?
  9. I've had this kit kicking around for a decade or so: And in in an effort to further stall my BRBO 1976 Chevrolet Bison, in April I decided to start it. The goal was to make a nice looking tractor using everything from the original kit, and I think I succeeded. The kit is box-stock except that I shortened the frame 48mm to a 180" wheelbase. The Kenworth badges below the doors, on the quarter fenders, and on the seat back are JBOT decals I had kicking around, and the badge on the grill is from the Revell of Germany Kenworth W900. The color is Rust-oleum Navy Blue, and the interior color is Dupli-Color Buckskin. The decals are from the original 1992 kit. Interior: Frame with engine (easier to see without the cab): I did have an issue with some missing parts from the Detroit Diesel 8V92T, and was helped out by a Forum member, and the valve covers are from Double Take Replicas. Exterior:
  10. Oddly, the Confederate flag might not be "on" the box, but it is "in" the box.
  11. Great looking Schwalbe. I've always like this aircraft, and A Higher Call is on my "to read" list. (It's a long list.)
  12. That's absolutely awesome!
  13. Some really nice looking Corvettes, and I like the 1957 Bel-Air in the background, too.

    1958 Ford

    Nice looking Ford. Well done. Don't think I've ever seen one of these before.
  15. I like you Charger. The Slant-6 is an interesting engine swap. I have this MPC kit: Is this the same Charger in the box?
  16. That's a pretty cool looking brushbreaker. Future project for you, maybe?
  17. I don't know about weeks, but I've used decal solvent a couple of days after I applied decals with no ill effects that I could see.
  18. Can't say as I've ever had my wife pick a build. Looks like you're off to a good start on your Cruiseliner.
  19. That really looks great. The brass makes it look really unique.
  20. Looks like this will be an interesting build.
