    Looks so much better with the decals. I'm glad they worked out for you.
  2. Jim B
    Very nice looking combination.
  3. Jim B
    I thought it looked familiar.

    Looking really nice, Sean. Is there a rain cap on your exhaust? Very 1970s.
  5. Jim B
    Well, that's different! Is that a Diamond-REO badge on the hood? Sure looks like one.

    Dennis, I don't know where that particular bridge is in Massachusetts, but I know the railroad bridge over Route 30 in Westborough, MA, has been hit several times. Here in Syracuse, NY, we had a double-deck Megabus hit a railroad bridge (do you see a theme here? ) that crosses Onongaga Lake Parkway. Because it's a parkway, he wasn't supposed to be on it anyway. Commercial vehicles are prohibited from parkways in New York. Five people were killed.

    Time will tell.

    Very nice job. Now you only need a couple more to make a real Road Train. Oh, and a big shelf!

    Most impressive. Any ideas on team yet?

    Very nice looking White-Western Star. Very well done.

    Thanks, Aaron. It does look like a mechanical lift mechanism on the 1:1 instead of a hydraulic lift. Might have to see if I can make something like that for the model.
  12. Jim B
    Nicely done.

    That dashboard in beautiful! Very well done. I'm interested in your technique as well.

    Very nice restoration. It looks great.

    Never saw the movie, but that's an awesome build.

    Very nice looking Volvo.

    Nicely done.

    We don't see too many old trucks here in Central New York. Road salt is pretty brutal on equipment. There is a guy in the Utica area that delivers pool water with a fleet of Kenworth K100E AeroDynes; so we see them from time to time. I did see an International 9400 (I think) the other day while driving around East Syracuse. Managed to get a shot of this International 9400, though. According to the driver it's an ex-Wal-Mart tractor that is now hauling carnival rides. Took the photo a couple of years ago at the Oz-stravaganza here in Chittenango.

    Awesome job, Dennis.

    Aaron, The AMT Logging Trailer is a Western style logging trailer like the ones you show in your photos. It does come with the bunk for the tractor as well as the pintle hitch & the headache rack. Might even come with heavy-duty quarter fneders, but I can't remember. As mentioned before, you will need to extend the rear of the frame, though. This might help some: http://thetimbershop.proboards.com/thread/584/converting-amt-logging-trailer-reach

    Nice looking Bf109.

    Nice looking Western Star. I like it with the double Mercury sleeper.

    Nice repair job. Your W900 looks really nice. Yes, Palm Springs, California, is a real place: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_Springs,_California It's a resort community down near Los Angeles & San Bernardino. That's not a Palm Springs phone number, though. There are too many digits in the last section. US phone numbers are 123-4567.

    Not all of them. KFS has his own Website, as does Double Take Replicas, AITM, & Auslowe. Rhino lists on eBay. GW Trucks (Gary Wallace) does not. If you want something from Gary, you'll need to email him.

    Thanks for the history lesson, G. I appreciate it. Yea, nothing like a bunch of Vikings to guard your stuff. That's 5th SS Panzer Division, right?
