  1. Thanks, Jim. It's going together quite well, and the only issue has been the plethora of deep ejector pin marks on the inside of the dump bed; but I have a solution! I just need time to implement it.
  2. Thanks. It's getting there.
  3. Those are some nice cases, Sam.
  4. Thanks. Going to add the raised bumper as well. Figure that would be on a construction type vehicle.
  5. Thanks. Got the brass logo painted up yesterday, and the fenders are all painted. Now to finish the interior.
  6. I put my tractors in these: https://www.pioneerplastics.com/shop/display-case/toy-cases/118-scale-diecast-case-2/ You can order them directly from Pioneer Plastics,. or they are available at Hobby Lobby. They generally will fit a single tractor or you don't get too crazy with the wheelbase, and they stack.
  7. Nicely done, Pat. IO like that OLBD dropside truck. Do you have one of those, too?
  8. Interesting. I like the West Seneca, NY, location on the decal sheet. If only the area code was correct (716), but I understand why it was done that way.
  9. Thanks. Turns out that time made most of the decal carrier film disappear. Have to add the brass Mack logo to the front.
  10. Looks nice, Justin. Looking forward to seeing it at Utica.
  11. So, it's been a little while, but I managed to get some decals onto "Ole' No. 25" today. I'm not entirely happy with how they look, but I am grateful that they didn't just disintegrate once they hit the water considering how old the decals are.
  12. The pics might be "less than stellar", but the build is awesome! I'm constantly amazed at the detail in these 1/43 kits. If I ever find one at a local show for a reasonable price I might just have the pull the trigger & buy it.
  13. Excellent job, Brian. Very well done.
  14. Autoworld offers this set: https://www.autoworldstore.com/product-p/mka022.htm You can also try Model Truckin' http://modeltruckin.com/store/ Although his white can be a little opaque, but not bad.
  15. That's awesome. Should look great with the belly dump.
  16. Nice looking V800 (aka The Boat Anchor). I've heard that Testors Model Master Auto Lacquer 1969 Ford Metallic Acapulco Blue is a really close match, but I cannot confirm or deny this.
  17. Yes, if I remember correctly, this kit was a bear to get together. You did a fine job. Nice pair of Chevys.
  18. Very well done. The weathering is great.
  19. Looks really nice. You put a lot of work into that.
  20. That's pretty cool. Nice job.
  21. Could he have meant a W300 Power Wagon?
