Year model of Big Rig Truck Kits
Jim B replied to leafsprings's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
List has been updated with new information & a notes section. I hope this is easier to read now. I've also added the Trumpeter American-LaFrance Eagle Pumper, the Itlaeri IVECO Stralis, and the Italeri IVECO-Magrius 140 25 Autoscala as I have these in my stash. I do not hae a lot of information on European trucks, althought I do find them interesting. -

I know it's not part of the original kit, but it would be nice if they included the cold weather intake for the air cleaner. -

AMT Equipment Trailer with Tank
Jim B replied to Warren D's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Very true. I'm trying to find a Tamiya T-34 in 1/25 for a reasonable price. Kind of wish Tamiya would reissue their 1/25 armor kits, but I guess 1/35 is where the money is. -

Well, that's interesting. Figured if this came back it would be Coca-Cola. It used to be USPS, but i guess they couldn't get the licensing for that.
