  1. Looks like an interesting project. Interesting that you say "yellow & green", because in the video it looks like yellow & blue. The pic on Hank's does look yellow & green, though.
  2. Never knew you could get a PayHauler as a tractor. See? You really do learn something new everyday!
  3. Contact Revell of Germany. They should replace the chrome trees if they are bad.
  4. I always build the frame first, then prime & paint as a single unit.
  5. Work all day on a drink of rum! Night time come an' me wan' go home. Stack the lumber to the evening come! Night time come an' me wan' go home. :)
  6. Great job so far. The white & red will look good together. Nice job on the MaxxForce.
  7. Glad to hear that you're sticking with truck modeling. You really did a very nice job. And it's spelled "Fruehauf", so you know.
  8. Amazing detail!
  9. Maybe we should point Fred in his direction. Then we can get the kits one by one. I'd deffinately take the AMT Kenworth, a Transtar II, and maybe a bulldozer,
  10. A good match for Alpine Green is Testors Model Masters Grun RLM62. The Detriot Diesel Alpine Green from Dupl-Color is (in my opinion) too dark & too thick.
  11. Interesting subject. Nice sceen.
  12. She seems to really like what she's doing, and appears to be doing a great job. Nice hat!
  13. If it we're me, I'd get the Bullnose Kenworth from Illini Replica Conversions. Photo Details: .
  14. Yup, that's sort of what mine looks like. My gap might be just a touch bigger. So, did they let you drive it? Or at least ride in it?
  15. You measure from the center line of the front axle to the center point BETWEEN the two drive axles. Tag axles & pusher axles wouldn't count.
  16. Yas, a Freightliner Cascadia, Coronado, or M2 would be very welcomed! Especially the Cascadia. They're everywhere!
  17. That's pretty cool. Who's that really big dude?
  18. Didn't you start on the LoneStar P/E set? Do you think there will be one for the ProStar? As far as steering wheels go, some "stock" modern & 1990s steering wheels would be nice. The AMT steering wheels just look out of place in modern trucks.
  19. Very impressice job. That shot of the Chevrolet pick-up driving down the road looks so real! Excellent work.
  20. That's a really good price for that kit. Sounds like AMT made a mistake when they packed it.
  21. Excellent job. Looks very realistic.
  22. Nice job. I like the steering wheel.
  23. Nice job. My kids really liked it.
