  1. Maybe this will work: http://bwicke9.wix.com/class-a-resin#!high-quality-decals/c20es
  2. Nice job on the grill.
  3. I have Brad Johnson's SATB Load Template from when he owned Model Truckin'. It's a PDF file, so PM me your email if you'd like a copy.
  4. That's awesome! Hey, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
  5. It's not Photobucket that's not playing nicely, it's probably the Forum. If you're using IE, make sure you have the Forum in "Compatibility View". Otherwise try either Google or FireFox.
  6. Great looking trailer, KJ. What are you going to hook it to?
  7. I tend to do a littte of both. If I know I'll need it for a future project, I might pick it up if I feel like it. That way when I do get around to the project I have the paint.
  8. Cool looking dio. I don't think I'd like to be assigned to one of those tanks. Doesn't look like it would survive small arms fire.
  9. Again, very nice. I like your different colored cross-lays. Did you use sewing elastic for the hand lines? What did you use for the supply line?
  10. Good looking dozer. Those are some serious hydraulic lines.
  11. Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Joe, I was in Btry C, 43rd ADA (PATRIOT), 108th Air Defense Bde.
  12. Pavel, that's a Kenworth W900, not a Peterbilt 359.
  13. Very nice job, Alan. I would have to say that from what you had to start with, you made a very nice truck.
  14. I've heard that Volvos are nice to drive. Must be that Swedish engineering.
  15. Thanks, guys. Bob, I bet your flight was delayed. It was a terrible tragedy.
  16. It's been a VERY long time since I've build any sort of aircraft. Most of my recent model building has been concentrating on Class 8 trucks. Anyway, I purchased this Airfix Lockheed L-1011 kit back in 1994 while I was stationed at Ft. Polk, LA; but I never really had any plan for it. Several months ago, there was an Ancient Airfix Campaign on another Forum; and I figured that this "ancient Airfix" kit would fit right in. The British Airways decals in the kit were toast (that's them curled up by the wing on the left), so I had to find something else. Then I remembered Flight 401. For those of you who are not familiar with Eastern Airlines Flight 401 from New York-JFK to Maimi International on December 29, 1972, it was the first wide-body airliner crash in US history when it crashed into the Everglades in final approach to Miami International. Growing up in Miami in the 1970s & 1980s; I think everybody knew about Flight 401. Here is the Wikipedia link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_401 Well, anyway, back to the build. All I needed was the Eastern Airlines decals, and TwoSix had them! So, here it is. My "tribute" to Eastern Airlines Flight 401:
  17. Good looking winch truck.
  18. Yes, good score. The engine looks to be in pretty good shape, and the decals look like they're alreay coming off for you.
