  1. Nice so far. Is that the Backyard Shed's Ford W9000 cab?
  2. This is going to be quite interesting.
  3. I like it. It tells a good story, and I think the fugitive it toast!
  4. There's some nice old stuff there. Working link: http://www.straightstack.com/index.php
  5. I remember there was a concrete company near me where I grew up In Miami, FL, that used orange Paystars to haul concrete blocks. Saw one of them dump his entire load off the side of his truck when he took a right off of US 1/South Dixie Highway onto Sunset Drive/SW 72 St. What a mess!
  6. The Paystar is a construction truck, so you'll see a lot of them as dumps, mixers, or heavy haul tractors. Search on Hank's Truck Pictures for ideas. There should be thousands! http://www.hankstruckpictures.com/
  7. Is the Crackerbox in 1/32 or 1/25?
  8. A 1/25 might sell well as it could go on the AMT Ford C600 frame.
  9. Well, there's a cab you don't see every day! Nice job.
  10. Nice Interstater. I like it. Only thing we need now are decent 1/32 wheels & tires.
  11. You can try emailing Daniel ar Plaskit Resin (plaskit_resin@yahoo.ca). He might have some. Or you can check with Dave Natle over at American Induatrial Truck Models (http://www.aitruckmodels.com/). Good luck.
  12. Very well done. Very realistic.
  13. I thought so, too. It'll be a "rebuild" as I bought the Peerless in 1985. Just have to figure out how to make the rear stringer for the tractor. Shouldn't be that hard.
  14. In HO scale that's going to be a huge building.
  15. I already have a Peerless log trailer waiting for mine.
  16. The WorkStar uses the LoneStar/ProStar cab?
  17. This is a welcome kit. I noticed on a Spaulding that this kit & the Peterbilt 352 are pre-offered at $44.95. Considerably more than their previous offers. Oh well. The price of oil I guess.
  18. Have you tried Fierball Model Works: http://www.fireballmodels.info/? He specializes in helicopter decals. Or maybe Cobra Company: http://www.cobracompany.com/indexfeb.htm He has some decals.
  19. Just about anything will look good behind this tractor. The any of the AMT Fruehauf trailers, or the Ertl Great Dane trailers. Maybe even the Moebius Great Dane trailer. The Wilson Livestock trailer will not fit due to the fixed fifth wheel and the belly on the trailer. Also, you might have to widen the hole in the fifth wheel to accept to AMT kingpin.
