  1. Sweet looking combination, Ben! There's some great details on that trailer.
  2. Well, I haven't been to any of those, but it was someplace.
  3. Looks nice. Where have I seen this before? It looks really familiar.
  4. Great story! I always like hearing stories from the road. I don't have a CDL, bu8t I have toyed with the idea of getting one. Never know when it could be useful. Thanks. That's a 1990s Ford LNT9000 that I found on Truckpaper. I was going to build it, but I haven't gotten around to it. According to the listing it had an air ride suspension & a Cummins N14. One of these days, maybe. I have the tanks & N14 from Auslowe, and the suspension & grill I can get from Plaskit. I think I have the horns someplace.
  5. Thanks, Rich. I like "real time" stories like that. It's good information. How did these trucks drive? I've always thought COEs would be pretty rough riders.
  6. It's not just the hoods that are differend, it'a also the cabs. The AMT cab is a 1968-72 (give or take a little) while the Revell of Germany & Revell USA cabs are 1973-1982. If you want to do a W900B, check with Gary Wallace of GW Trucks (gwtrucks@yahoo.com). He'll be able to set you up with a resin W900B cab & hood.
  7. Can the Italeri Western Star Australia be converted into a left hand drive?
  8. Nice looking Western Stars. Both of them.
  9. Wow! That did come put really clean. What tape did you use? I'm wondering how it would look with a contrasting seperation stripe, like gold or silver.
  10. Hey, Tim! Save some for the rest of us. I only need two; maybe three.
  11. Actually, it doesn't llke like that 359 would be to hard to make out of either the Revell of Germany kit or the Revell USA kit. I think Jerry might even have the decals, too.
  12. Very nicely done. Great details.
  13. I'm pretty sure Burt Reynolds refused to be part of Part 3.
  14. Thanks, guys, I appreciate the comments. Yes, I think the Chevrolet & the livestock trailer make a nice 1970s combo.
  15. Check with Nigel over at Auslowe. He offers the VT903 in resin, and he might be willing to sell you the turbo conversion seperately.
  16. I don't think so. The Revell/Monogram 1/32 Peterbilt 352 is already out, and it's only about $16.
  17. That's pretty cool. It's not on Round2's Website yet, but I'm sure it will be. Probably get a couple of those.
  18. Thanks, Gordon. No flatbeds in the inventory right now.
