  1. Nice progress on the engine. This might help with wiring it: http://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles/car_modeller/cm08_july_1991_cate/ , but it looks like you've done a good job without it.
  2. Looks like you're off to a good start. Yes, the wheels & tires are probably the worst part of the kit.
  3. The black & white definately looks the periot (early 20th Century). To me, the sepia photo reminds me of The Old West or the Civil War. A little to early for cars.
  4. Sweet looking combination. If you decide that you need a "change of pace" on the shelves, you could always put a water tank trailer behind it. Hey, after you build the pool, you need to fill it up, right?
  5. That's my "driving on water" pic!
  6. Do you mean the Revell of Germany Kenworth W900 or the Revell USA Snap Kenworth W900? Either way, the AMT trailers fit these kits. On the Revell USA kit, you just need to make the hole in the fifth wheel a tad larger. Here's a pic of my Revell USA Snap Kenworth W900 with the AMT Fruehauf tank trailer:
  7. Nice looking hood. I think Scale Finishes has UPS Brown.
  8. I've heard that the AMT "Rubber Duck" Mack is very innacurate. This site might help: http://www.stlouisdumptrucks.com/ConvoyMackTruck/index.html
  9. Gary Wallace from GW Trucks offers a W900S, a W900B, and (2) different T800 cabs. You can send him an email at gwtrucks@yahoo.com. His W900 cabs are about mid-1990s. There are currently no cabs offered (that I know of) for the other T-Series trucks.
  10. Awesome combination! Got any perticular driver in mind?
  11. Looks pretty good. I like the colors, and the spokes on the front with the disks in the back is different.
  12. Quite nice. This will make a good combination. Do you have any ideas yet for a load?
  13. Thanks, Casey! Those are great prices!
  14. Looks really nice. I'm hoping that Moebius adds the RigSkirts to their Great Dane van.
  15. Nice job. I think you really captured the farm truck look. There's one similar to this next door to me.
  16. What's wrong with the Ertl cab? Is it still closer to the CO4000?
  17. Ken, Thanks for chiming in on this. I appreciate it.
  18. Think Round2 will ever reissue the Transtar II COE?
  19. Nice job. It looks well detailed.
  20. Thanks for the compliments, guys. I appreciate it.
  21. From what I've heard, they will be offering them as seperate kits. Maybe Dave Metzner can confirm this.
