Nah!! You have to go for the real feeling. It has to be in the Wii.

Cool. Looking forward to it. What are you going to load it with?

Interesting subject. I like it. Looks like your front tandem is behind the skirt on the trailer.

Thanks. I think I need to add some sort of steering linkage, but I'm not sure quite how.

Thanks for the compliment. You're Revell of Germany kit should come out better as it's more detailed to begin with. There's a few aftermarket parts on this one, and the engine is from the AMT Peterbilt 359 (I think).

Quite nice. I like the base it's on, too.

So, I mananged to get some work done on the W900 this weekend. After a minor set back of the engine being mounted too high; I managed to get that corrected, the radiator mounted, the stack heat shields on, the logos on the sleeper, and the lights & horns on the roof. It's not much, but it's something.

Looks really nice.

Never seen it.

Ok, that's good news!

Check here: http://www.stlouisdumptrucks.com/ConvoyMackTruck/Sleeper.html Scroll all the way to the bottom, and there are "plans" for the 60" Able Body sleeper.

sounds like a major undertaking. Is the engine correct?

What will we do with an old Freightshaker, What will we do with an old Freightshaker, What will we do with an old Freightshaker, Early in the morning! Doug, that Freigliner is awesome!!!

Well, I guess you could put some chains & turnbuckles on the rack. Maybe dome dirt?

They look nice. Are they printed on white or clear? The only one I'm not too sure about is the Kenworth logo in the black rectangle. But if I were you, I'd delete the photo of the Yellow Engine logos, unless you want an 800-lb gorilla breathing down your neck threating to sue over coppyright infringment.

Doug, that sepia picture looks real. I thought it was you inspiration photo for a sec. Now, what would be the purpose of one of these trucks? Why would you want to race in the mud? I think you would have less traction that way.

The "Yellow Engine", no idea. Any idea what model engine it was? For the time frame, I'd guess a 1693. If that's the case, you'll have to scratch build it. For a donor kit, the Chevrolet Titan or GMC Astro have pretty good frames, and they're relitively inexpensive. They both come with tandem spring suspensions & Detroit Diesel 8V71N engines.

Like this one: White 7400?

Nice looking little fleet truck you've got there.

The Back Yard Shed has a Kenworth Bullnose conversion. He doesn't list it in his store right now, but he does have one. http://shop.ebay.com/auskid40/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1 And Illini Replica Conversions has some older cabs as well.

Nice rack! I like the little details you're putting on it.

Looks nice. That's a serious pogo stick you've got there!

Looks really nice. I like what you've done with it so far.
