They were probably brought back to Canada & the US as war prizes.

Those are some pretty impressive layouts.

Decent looking weathering. That's one used Ford.

Nice job! Those are some serious flood lights on the back.

That's cute!

Nice looking WT9000. Did you scratch build the cab?

I like it. I remeember plenty of those from my time in Lounsiana. We used to say that you hadn't been in Louisiana very long if you didn't have a cracked windshield or a broken headlight due to a logging truck!

I think all the LoneStars in that container are already sold! Hope you've got another one on the way.

I'm assuming that this is supposed to be Ireland? Maybe a roadster, like a Bently or an Aston Martin. Didn't James Bond drive a silver Aston Martin DB5?

Depending on the year, in this case the late 1970s, gold would be an appropriate choice. I've found that Tamiya Gold Leaf X-12 is pretty close. The 300-Plus ETAZ-673A was copper colored.

You're logger looks really nice. I like the subtile weathering, and the details. That dash is really pretty (I didn't think I'd ever say that about a Paystar). Excellent job so far.

Wow! That looks incredible!

RMR has some truck stuff. They have a White 3000, Dodge Bighorn, Dodge CNT900, and some really old (1950s) Ford, Dodge, & Chevrolet COEs.

It isn't just you. I can't see them either. I see eliote is at it again.

Nice job on the deflector mounts.

Nice little dio. What type of car will be going in front of it?

Nice job, Miguel. Looks like it could be a house in Maimi, too. Was this for a client as well? And who's this "eliote" guy?

No, Gary at GW Trucks doesn't have a Website, but if you email him at GW Trucks, he'll send you a print catalog.

Was it just me, or did the "In Tandem" episode end too soon? What happens after they cross the bridge?

Oh, that's right! On the 3406 the oil pan is molded onto the block. Forgot about that. I'll have to give it some thought. We just might have to get creative.

When you have a set back axle truck, you have to switch the oilpan around.

Is it the sump or the oilpan itself that hits the axle? If it's the sump, you can just stich the oilpan around.

I recently purchased the AMT White Road Boss from a LHS. What was wrong with the rear spokes? Just so I know what to look for when I open the kit.

Yes, the V800 was blue. All other engines the International put into their trucks at their time were International 2150 Red (apparently Testors Red 1203 is a good match), but they wanted this one to "stand out". I'm not sure when International switched to OEM colors for the other engines that were offered in their trucks.

The engine that's in the International 4300 is the International V800. I've heard that Testors Model Masters Auto Laquer Metalic 1969 Ford Acapulco Blue is pretty close. Here, this article might help: Detailing the International V800. Well, it couldn't hurt, anyway.
