  1. Your interior looks great. Looking forward to your progress.
  2. You could try Vintage Flyer Decals: http://vintageflyerdecals.com/index.html but I'm not sure they'll have what you need. There is also V1 Decals: https://www.v1decals.com/ who might be able to help. Good luck.
  3. This should be interesting. Where are the wheels & tires from?
  4.

  5. I have several Dodges planned (A Big Horn, a L1000, & a D-300), but this is the only Dodge I've finished: 1969 L700.
  6. Nicely done. It's a decent little kit, and details up nicely. I don't like the wheels & tires, though.
  7. Very nice job. Well done. I like the Mercury sleeper on her.
  8. Fantastic work. I really like you attention to detail.
  9. Looks like a nice kit, but I will say that unless you're doing a derelict or a sunken ship you have WAY too much rust on her.
  10. Interesting aircraft. I wonder how this compared to the A6M2-N Rufe.
  11. It's quite possible. I couldn't say, but it does look a lot like the AMT kit. It was still sitting there on Monday, so maybe I'll try contacting Crane to see if I can get some additional information on it.
  12. Nice progress. Those long tanks look like the tanks from the AMT GMC General or Chevrolet Bison, mold seams & all.
  13. So I was driving home from Utica, NY, Wednesday evening; and low & behold what should I see parked along the side of the road in Vernon, NY? This immaculate Peterbilt 352 (at least I think it's a 352) in the Crane Company parking lot. Everything on it was so clean which makes me think this "might" be a parade truck. Either way it's in great condition.
  14. Isn't this similar to the Rescue Van that was released last year?
  15. If only we could get this level of detail in a 1/25 kit. It would probably make it too expensive, though.
  16. There really are no words to describe this contraption. Sort of belongs in the "More money than sense" category.
  17. Nice old trucks. Thanks for posting. Nice bike. What is that? It looks like a Versys.
  18. I didn't notice that. Can't say as I've heard of an N927 either. So with aluminum frame rails I've guessing that this wasn't spec'd out as a vocational truck. Apparently (after some research), the Cummins N927 as called the Super 250. Basically, it's a NH250 Cummins 250 with a 927 cid instead of the 855 cid.
