  1. Sad old Fords. Great dioramas.
  2. Nice job, Chad. Keep "Movin' On", MIA! I like the trailer, too.
  3. Yes, that's the 9500. Porky (http://ppvintagekits.com/) offeres a GMC Topkick. Not sure if he has it listed on his site or not. Best to email him. Eric's a good guy, and makes top quality stuff.
  4. Another really nice looking Road Boss. I like it with the shorter hood & frame.
  5. Nice clean build. Very Owner/Operator looking.
  6. Looks really nice. I like the stripes.
  7. Excellent diorama.
  8. Nice job. I don't know what it is about this kit, but every time I see it I think it should be greay with "U.S. Navy" on the doors. It does look great in red!
  9. A ProStar with some muscle! Nice.
  10. That's really sweet! I like it.
  11. Here you go: http://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles/car_model/cm-1972-03/
  12. I think it was these guys: http://www.modelmake...sk7k9d7c4tn6ig0 If you look in The Model Trucks & Parts, you'll see this: As the first kit of these niche vehicles we have each other him for an American 53’ flat bed trailer decided, which is after a short planning and construction time – but a long material procuring time now finite as a limited kit ( only 50 pieces worldwide ) is available for customers in this article category ! Of course, it's not there anymore.
  13. Thought I recognized the decals. That's what my black one started out as. What strange plastic! It was sort of translucent. Very wierd.
  14. Nice one, A.J. Was that the orange kit or the silver kit?
  15. Loks really nice. There's a General wrecker here in the Syracuse area that looks a lot like that.
  16. Nice W900, Chris. I like the blue. Is that the AMT lowboy behind it?
  17. Excellent dash work. Hope to see this at Fulton this year.
  18. I haven't built this kit yet, but from what I hear the fit is pretty bad. The information that I have on this truck puts it as a 1973 with a 122" BBC and the standard AMT Cummins NTA370.
  19. Ok, here you go: Basic black & chrome. Swapped out the kits Caterpiller 3406 with a Cummins NTC350 Big Cam III (well, sort of), relocated the molded on marker lights to their correct location on top of the headlight buckets, added the roof wing from P & P Resin Works (narrowed it down to 72"), and added a fifth wheel grab handle from a straight pin.
  20. Nice job on the dash. I'll definately be using this build as a guide when I start my General. Those flaps look familiar.
  21. There actually is one. Czech Truck Modell makes one, and you can usually get it from The Model Maker Shop. It's not currently listed, but I have seen it there before. http://www.modelmakershop.com/modelmakershop/index.php?cat=c126_Czech-Truck-Modell.html&XTCsid=aacs5ukq822sk7k9d7c4tn6ig0 Also, Harold Weber from Germany (hw962c@gmx.de) makes a set.
