  1. Well, it's yellow! Not sure what dealer you're doing, but if it were red I'd say Ferrari.
  2. That's not a Cummins; it's a Detroit Diesel 8V92.
  3. That's really looking great, MIA. You have some serious scratchbuilding tallent.
  4. That looks really nice! I think you did a great job on it.
  5. Those do look like off-road, 4x4 pick-up tires.
  6. That's a great tutorial. US seatbelts look like that, too.
  7. Check with Plaskit. I believe he has them.
  8. Quite a bit of kits there. And it looks like you have some nice looking, although dusty, models on the shelves already.
  9. AITM offers a REO C-Model: http://www.aitruckmodels.com/pages/ck90reocmodel.html
  10. Nice looking 388. I like it with the tanker. I thing your helper likes it, too!
  11. I've done this with decals from Revell of Germany, and it can take up to 12 weeks.
  12. Me personally? No, I haven't purchased this kit, but several people on this Forum (and others) have and that's what they did.
  13. Quite a few promissing projects there. Hope to see some of them when they are completed.
  14. Contact Revell of Germany about this. They should replace the chrome trees free of charge. Apparently there was an issue during manufacturing.
  15. Well, there's this one: http://www.aitruckmodels.com/pages/ck90reocmodel.html
  16. Go for it! You won't be disapointed.
  17. I agree as well. The Revell USA Kenworth W900 or Peterbilt 359 are great kits to "get started" with truck modeling. They fit together well, and look nice when completed. They are also pretty accurate. The AMT kits tend not to fit together very well sometimes, and can be quite frustrating.
  18. One thing to consider is that in the 1950s & 60s, car manufacturers required the auto hauler be the same make as the cars they were hauling. Food for thought.
  19. Gary Wallace from GW Trucks makes a nice resin front end correction/conversion for the T600/T800, The front ends of the T600/T800 are completely different from the W900. The AMT T600A is realy a bizzare kit. It has the T600A hood (flat nose), the T600B cab (sort of) with the single piece windshield, a W900 frame, and a 1970s engine & transmission.
  20. Looks really nice. I like your photo base.
