  1. Your trailer came out really nice. Looks like the log traiers we see around here in Upstate New York. Got any shots of the tractor?
  2. Didn't Peterbilt also offer them in the 352H? I'm pretty sure I've heard of them in Kenworth W900s as well, but I'm not sure about the K100. Might be too short.
  3. Very nice. I like your dash details.
  4. That looks great. with all of thise parts, it's a model in itself. Wonder if I can stuff that under the hood od a W900.
  5. That's coming along really nice.
  6. Nice tutorial, Ryan. Might have to try that one of these days.
  7. I suppose those would work.
  8. Good to know. Where do you recommend you get correct front floats for the Bill Signs Peterbilt 359? Isn't the actual truck a 359-127?
  9. He has the Bill Signs Peterbilt 359 on "Pre-Order" for $79 as well.
  10. Do you mean the Peterbilt 353 "Western Life" or the Peterbilt "Canadian Hauler"? Model Express has them listed for about $65.
  11. Have you check out Old Dodges? They might have some good photos.
  12. That looks pretty good. I guess you can say you're the first with a LoneStar model! Good job.
  13. KJ, those are rally nice. I've got to find one of this Great Dane reefers. One of these days. Are you planning on bringing these to Fulton?
  14. Thanks, but I cannot take credit for the paining on the Astro. A friend of mine did it for me.
  15. I'm pretty sure that both the W900 & K100 Aerodynes in 1976 had the tandem torsion bar suspension as an option. So, on that note, both of my Bicentennial Kenworths will have the tandem torsion bar suspension. Have to make a matched set, ya know.
  16. Nice job. I like your engine detail, and the color is really nice, too. What sort of mirrors are you looking for?
  17. That looks really nice, Ray. Much better that the stock fifth wheel plate. I'm glad I could inspire someone! I have another one of these kits in the stash that will be made into one of the Bicentennial W900s, so now you've inspired me to try this. Between this & replacing the 8-bag suspension with the tandem torsion bar suspension it should be an interesting build.
  18. Those are both looking really nice.
  19. Thanks, guys. The steerable front axle on the GMC is a kit modified part. Didn't come out quite as nice as I'd hoped, but it's ok. There's too much "slop" in the wheels.
  20. Looking good, Ray. I like where this is going. That orange plastic is tough to cover!
  21. I like it so far! Very nice work. Is that another one in the background? I like the visor on that one.
  22. Nice save. That KW looks really nice.
