  1. JT, those are fantastic prices for a Revell of Germany kit. I figured (in typical Revell Reissue fashion) it'd be around $100.
  2. Looking nice. I like the details on the engine.
  3. The Futureliner is pretty cool in an Art-Deco sort of way. I wonder how they were to drive.
  4. Actually, yes, just like that. And running boards, too.
  5. From what I gather, you need to change the cab/hood from a 359 to a 379 (I think Bill Drennen currently offeres a 1/25 379 cab/hood). I think you also need to swap out the engine, but not sure to which one.
  6. Quite nice. Do you offer the second row seat?
  7. That's good news. Now I just have to figure out all the other stuff (light bar; correct wheels & tires; oh, and the squad box)
  8. Cool little diorama base. Well done.
  9. Great job on the Corsair, Joe. Looks like you fought the good fight & won this time around. Nice looking base, too.
  10. I had a similar issue with the Revell 1937 Delivery Van (which is basicly the same kit). I got the fenders on just fine as I installed them before I put the radiator in (I think), but I could not get the hood to close properly. It's like the radiator is too wide & too tall.
  11. Great looking Diamond-Reo dump. Very well done.
  12. Try here: http://www.scalemodelingbychris.com/124_drive-in_main.htm
  13. Very nice!
  14. The W900L with the Aero sleeper looks really promissing. Might just have to get one of those.
  15. Nice job on the Freightliner.
  16. This tractor would look good pulling 28ft double flatbeds or 28ft double belly dumps. They use this configuration in California all the time.
  17. Do you have a contact for Ken's Customs? I'm thinking of putting a Cummins in the 1/16 Kenworth.
  18. Your Mack & trailer look really nice. I agree with Clayton, the AMT tanker will try your patience.
  19. The 8-bag suspension is a good change, & the Moebius tires will look a lot better.
  20. Don't knock until you've tried it, Sergey. I'm sure you could do wonders with that little kit, and you never know, it might be an interesting change of pace.
  21. Great looking combination. Gravel trailer looks right at home behind the DR.
  22. It will be interesting to watch the restoration. It definitely needs a trip to the wash rack! Looking forward to progress posts.
