  1. Great looking locomotive. Do you have any track? Is this a static model or an electric one?
  2. Nice, Dave. Now we just need a visor for the snap Kenworth W900.
  3. Excellent job. Looks like something that would spray liquid fertilizer or insecticides; but not manure. Very cool!
  4. The P/E grill really is an improvement. I remember Harold; he was a member over at the Yahoo! Group for a while. Made a P/E set for the Ford C-Series, too. Wonder whatever happened to him?
  5. Enjoy each stage, Clayton. They all have their fun times, trials, & tribulations. This stage is mostly eat, poop, sleep; and not necessarily in that order. They can't see very far, and they can't hear very well. In about three months when his brain is finally fully developed, he'll be a completely different baby. It's like turning on a light switch. All of a sudden he'll be able to interact with you, and laugh; it's really incredible. You'll see. If I may make a recommendation: get a copy of "The Happiest Baby on the Block" by Dr. Harvey Karp. You will NOT regret that purchase.
  6. Interesting take on the Road Boss. I wouldn't take it under any bridges if I were you!
  7. Frame & engine look really nice.
  8. Those black & gray Winslow Stripes look really nice on the gold. Are those from the kit?
  9. Great looking Dodge!
  10. Nice looking old White. Well done.
  11. You know, Austin & Rob, I thought the same thing. Call it "Artistic License". Keeps the diorama from becoming 5ft long. Anyway, well done, Manny. I like the damage to the car. Quite realistic. I don't think anyone would have survived that impact.
  12. Very nice progress. I like the engine detailing.
  13. Congradulations to you & your wife, Clayton. Sure is a little guy, isn't he? Your lives are about to change in ways you cannot even imagine right now. Enjoy your little boy; they really do grow up fast.
  14. Looking nice, Ray. Headlight lowering technique? I didn't see it on Tim's site. Can you post a link?
  15. I wonder though, is this standard gauge track (4ft 8-1/2") or Southern wide gauge track (5ft). What's also interesting is that these are going for $10 - $60 on eBay.
  16. Nicely done. Cracked steering wheel & all. Great weathering.
  17. So, is anyone in the market for a 2006 Peterbilt 379? I've seen this sitting one the sire of the road for a while, but I finally managed to get some pics today.
  18. Quite a few, apparently. Trucker humor, I guess. Didn't VW make a COE at one time? I seem to remember seeing pics of it. Maybe it was just a prototype.
  19. Yes, it does. The driver told me he put it there as a joke. He tells people that it's a VW.
  20. Ok, so I didn't actually see these recently, but here is a 1993 International 9600 that was being used to haul the carnival rides for last years Oz-stravaganza here in Chittenango, NY. The driver told me it used to be a Wal-Mart rig: This is a 1937 Ford that was in town back in 2011: As was this 1954 Chevrolet:
