    That's one sweet looking KW. You did a fine job. As to the plates, yes, back in the 1970s you needed a plate for every state you ran through. I agree with JT on the Revell-Monogram kits: they're inexpensive, well detailed for a snap kit, & easy to build. There are a couple of downsides though. The tires are not very good, and if you want to make then a daycab the sleepers are molded with the cabs. There is also no brake details.

    I think I've seen this one before. Isn't this paper?

    Cool build.

    That's really sweet!

    Nice looking ProStar.

    Nice looking 352.

    Nice job!

    Very well done. The drop-deck looks good behind the LoneStar.

    Håkan, you might as well delete the list from SourKrauts. He's impossible to get a hold of, and he never has anything in stock. I tried to get his L10 & M11 for two years.

    Looks really nice!

    Looks great! Like part of the set from the show.

    That about sums it up!

    I use Testors Model Masters Grun RLM 62. It's a pretty close match (to me) to the Detroit Diesel Alpine Green that was used in the 1970s. The Detroit Diesel Alpine Green that Dupli-Color sells is just too dark, in my opinion. Judge for yourself. Dupli-Color Alpine Green: Testors Grun RLM 62:

    No, there is a list on this site. It might take some "creative searching" to find it.

    Nice tank. Is that Alclad?

    Welcome aboard, Victor. I grew up down in Miami, FL, back in the 1970s & 80s.

    This should be really nice. I've been wanting to do one of these for a while. Are those the kit fuel tanks?
  18. Jim B
    You're welcome.

    Looking really nice!

    Nice clean build. Maybe some outside shots once the snow stops flying?

    Great looking truck.

    Great looking bus. Very realistic. I remember riding on those back in the 1980s.

    Nice looking trailer. I like it in black. Yes, it's tough to build a box when nothing is straight. Remember what I told you AMT stood for?
  25. Jim B
    That's pretty neat!
