Great looking Ford. These C900 Fords were synonymous with Roadway back in the day. Well done.

Bored build New inspiration…
Jim B replied to slusher's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I would say it's pretty normal. Who knows, lightning might strike again, and you'll go back to the other kit to finish it up. Might be next week, or it could be next year (which sounds like a long way away, but it really isn't). Don't force it. The desire will return. -

Thanks, Jürgen. Yes, it's a classic combination. -
Monogram 1/32 Mack R600 & Tank Trailer
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
That is true, and a little Tamiya Rubber Black goes a long way in improving the look. I think these snap kits were designed for young modelers to get them interested in the hobby. -
2024 Build’s let’s See them.

Thanks, Lee. You might have to wait a while for the Bison as the bench is pretty much closed down until Spring as I can really spray paint due to the cold. It'll get done though! -
Well, that one's seen better days, hasn't it? Nicely done.

As far as "Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment", I'll keep the 1/32 Scale Theme going. I finished up three this year: Monogram 1980 Mack R600 & Fruehauf Tank Trailer (since these were in the same box, is this one or two? 🤔) Revell 1982 Fruehauf Reefer Trailer (1987 Kenworth T600A was built in 2008): Light year for heavy trucks for me. -
Great looking Roadrunner. Well done.

I never realized the Heller reissued these kits. That's interesting. Of course, that was almost 20 years ago.

Great looking truck & trailer, Jürgen. This would be right at home in Southern California. Well done. -
Monogram 1/32 Mack R600 & Tank Trailer
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks, Jürgen. You're right, the snap kits do have a lot of potential. Unfortunate the wheels & tires are so bad. -

Monogram 1/32 Mack R600 & Tank Trailer
Jim B replied to Jim B's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
Thanks for the positive comments, guys. I didn't see your responses until today. @Pete68 Lee, Converting the gasoline tanker to a chemical tanker shouldn't be "too" hard. Still need to finish the track for the Big Boy. Been putting that off for too long. @DRIPTROIT 71 Brain, yes, the Mack builds up quite nicely. The tank trailer was another matter altogether! I seem to have trouble with tank trailers for some reason. -
Nicely done. I remember those, or their similar replacements, when I was in London in 1987.
