    Interesting piece of history, David. Very cool.
  2. Jim B
    Looking really nice. If my painting came out like that, I'd call it a success!
  3. Jim B
    Yes, it does say that, but it doesn't specify what manufacturer it is. Could be Cummins.
  4. Jim B
    Mark, that does help, thanks. Hopefully an Internet search will bring up some photos.
  5. Jim B
    Hard to say. Looks like the only engines available from the factory for the 1969-1970 model year for the L700 were Dodge gasoline engines: http://www.olddodges.com/index1.htm Knowing the Tommy Ivo truck, it's highly modified.

    Wow! That looks fantastic! Great weathering on the frame.
  7. Jim B
    Interesting. Do you have any WIP photos? Did you have to cut the roof off?
  8. Jim B
    Mark, how difficult was it to re-rib the van roof? I have the Rescue Van issue of this kit. At least, I think it's the same kit.

    Looking really nice, Brian. You're giving me some good ideas for when (if) I ever build mine.

    Thanks, Charles. 60km/h (37mph) doesn't seem very fast for a highway.

    Looks awesome, Charles. Fantastic weathering job. What do the numbers (90, 80, 60) on the rear of the cab signify? I've seen these on European trucks, and I've always wondered.
  12. Jim B
    Interesting. How are you planning on stepping the masts?
  13. Jim B
    I like the base. Well done.
  14. Jim B
    That looks fantastic, Charlie. Extremely well done.
  15. Jim B
    Yes, the darker red looks much better. This is a huge kit! Lots of details. Looking really nice.

    Pretty neat. Harriet Lane didn't have a bridge between the paddles?
  17. Jim B
    Ah, right, sweet tea! You are South of the Mason-Dixon line.
  18. Jim B
    Nicely done. What scale are these?
  19. Jim B
    She looks great. Well done.

    I was unaware that Autocar had white engines. I've used Tamiya Deck Tan XF-55 for Cummins Beige. It's pretty close.

    Less coffee? How are you riding out Hurricane Florence?

    Really nice job on the hulls. Try here for other decals & P/E parts: https://starshipmodeler.biz/shop/index.cfm/category/51/trek-decals.html

    Nice job on your Stuka.
  24. Jim B
    Great start so far. Looks really nice.

    From the year, and if the brochure is for a W900, I'd say it's for the wide nose.
