So, from your description, the tan/gold ones are 670 & the white one is a 780. Is that right?

How can you tell?

I've seen those. That's what gave me the idea, but I don't know what model that is. I guess in the long run it doesn't really matter, but it would be nice to know.

Thanks for the info. Well beyond my skill level right now, but an interesting project.

That's different! Pretty cool, too.

Thanks, Pavel. That's good information.

That's really cool, Greg. Do you remember what you used for the roll-up doors?

Thanks for the info, guys. I appreciate it. I know the VN series has been around since the mid to late 1990s, but I wasn't sure if the kits went back that far. JT, I wouldn't expect anything new in the Italeri kit. I'm sure it's just going to be a re-pop. Does anyone know if Bison Transport out of Canada used the VN780 or the VN670?

That looks really nice. Great kit bashing.

Does anyone know the approximate "years" represented by the Italeri Volvo VN670 & VN780 kits?

Very well done. Nice job on both.

So, is it in Unadilla or Otego? Both towns are on the doors.

Cool! Just in time for my birthday! Happy birthday to me!

Pretty cool!

Good looking wrecker. I like the rust treatment. Not so sure about the gold chains, though.

That would make a cool model.

Very nice. Are you nscratch building it, or modifying a resin kit?

Could it be possible that Peterbilt used the same nomenclature in Australia that it did in the US & Canada? I don't know. They're cool trucks, though!

Well, those 6 .50 cal machine guns should clear traffic!

One of the vendors at the show last weekend had this for $16, and I considered picking it up; but then I remembered my LoneStar that was sitting on the contest table. The tires had fused to the diaplay case bottom, and I could not remove them. Before I had put the model into a display case I had it on a shelf, and the tires stuck to that, too. Has anyone else had this problem with the Moebius tires?

Those are sweet! You & your friend did a great job. Do you still have the plans/drawings for those bodies?

Nice outside shots. These trucks looked really nice at Utica.

I was behind a UPS Mack CL (I think it was a CL) today that was bob-tailing back to the distribution center. It had the black lines. Must be a "cost savings" thing.

Great looking combination, Dave. I really like it.

Revell of Germany did the same thing with the "Can Do" wrecker. It's a 379 on the box, but a 359 in the box.
