  1. Oh! Fried eggs & spam! Yum. That's a good camping breakfast right there.
  2. Awesome build, Tom. Very well done.
  3. Nice job, Greg. I think I remember seeing this over at The Scale Firehouse.
  4. Nice progress. I've seen these kits a couple of times at HL, but never pulled the trigger. The seem to build up nicely.
  5. Now there's an idea!
  6. Looks really nice. Makes me want to finish my T600 Erb tractor.
  7. Nicely done. Great job on the details.
  8. It's actually quite easy. When I did mine back in 2008, I epoxied a small aluminum tube to the bottom front of the hood, and lined it up with two small tubes I epoxied into the front of the frame into the slots where the hood pins would have gone. Then I just ran a wire through all of the tubes, and it's hidden behind the bumper. You can just see the tubes in the frame in front of the radiator in the WIP shot. The second shot shows how it looks when the hood is open.
  9. I thought the C500 had a straight front frame, as opposed to the drop front frame like the W900?
  10. That's pretty cool. I was in Riyadh & Dhahran. Two "garden spots", let me tell ya.
  11. Thanks for the link, John. They have some really cool stuff there.
  12. This is looking great. Where did you get the kit?
  13. AeroMax is starting to take shape. Looks really nice.
  14. Never seen one of those, Mike. That's pretty impressive. We used the HEMTT M983 tractors, M978A2 tankers, & M977 Large Repair Parts Transporter in the PATRIOT battery I was in.
  15. It's a truck. Works for me.
  16. That looks fantastic. I'm not that familiar with Chinese manufactured trucks.
  17. This is going to be awesome.
  18. Looking really nice. Are those the Moebius decals?
  19. That's pretty cool. Well done.
  20. That looks awesome! The black & gold really look great together. Very well done.
  21. Found this video from Daily Diesel Dose over on YouTube today. According to the description, it is a 1969 Brockway U459 with a Detroit Dieses 12V71. This truck apparently hauled steal during the construction of the World Trade Center (1966-1975), and the quad stacks were an attempt to quiet the 12V71 for work in Manhattan. Good luck with that! I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this.
  22. Great looking wagon.
  23. That's a beast. Well done.
