  1. Nice yellow! I like it with the black stripes.
  2. Thanks for the idea, Charlie. I might just give that a try. Do you know what they used to grease these chains? Was it something like chainsaw bar oil, or was it actually grease? Here is what she looks like now with everything just sort of placed on the frame. The cab, hood, & fenders are assembled & ready for paint. The body is in the assemble process now. I'm finding the green plastic not nearly as bas to paint as the red or blue plastic.
  3. I like it. The logo looks cool.
  4. Thanks. Want to get some more assembly done on the box in the next few days.
  5. Managed to get some work dome on the Mack AC over the last few days. The frame is essentially complete, so the next step is the cab & dump box. Fingers crossed the decals done disintegrate once they hit the water!
  6. That sure is bright yellow. Looks nice.
  7. That's a nice looking fire service truck there, Casey. I'm going to guess that "Apache" is Chevrolet's 4x4 designation?
  8. Great looking Mack, Tom. I like the detail you're putting into this one. Oh, nice bike in your avatar. Is that a CB750?
  9. Nice looking wheels. I like the sticker on your paint booth.
  10. This should be nice. For some reason I've always preferred the Montone dump body on the Autocar to the Heil dump body on the Paystar. Doesn't the DM600 kit have the long frame on the box, too?
  11. Doing a fire rig will be great. I really like the LACoFD Transtar II. What department is the S-Series from?
  12. Excellent build, Sergey. Very well done. You probably don't see trucks like that driving around in Russia too often.
  13. Thanks. Yes, that thread is really taking on a life of it's own.
  14. Sounds like some experimentation is in order. Thanks for the info on the AC backdate materials.
  15. That's really nice. I like it. Just picked this kit up yesterday, and I have no idea what I'm going to do with it.
  16. Thanks, Steve. I'll Dave to see what he has.
  17. An air scoop? Wonder what that's for. Like this:
  18. That would work. Be a dust magnet for sure!
  19. So I was getting ready to do some chassis detail painting on the AC Mack, and I was wondering if anyone had a good color to replicate the greasy chain & front sprocket. I was thinking either Tamiya NATO Black or Polly Scale Grimy Black.
  20. Should be nice. Those trailers really take up a lot of real estate.
  21. Great looking trailer. Well done.
  22. Very nice job. Well done.
