Awesome!

Looking good, Tim. I like how the "High Heat" Aluminum looks on the livestock trailer. Might have to look into that. Doesn't look like it will be as bright as "Bumper Chrome", and that's a good thing. Diggin' the green, too.

This one: http://public.fotki.com/turbo590/fulton-model-car-an/dsc04849-jpg.html ? I think it's something Daniel from Plaskit was working on.

1979 works for me!

Very nice! Your weathering looks realistic.

That's a sweet looking conversion, dude. There's a couple of 9300 dumps owned by Resmussen running around here in CNY.

If it's the same as the 1/25 kit (and it looks like it might be), I'd say it's a 1970 or 71.

I think it's about a 1975 or so.

No problem. Glad to help. This is sort of aa "on-going" discussion among truck modelers. It comes up often.

Since it's in a Kenworth, and you say that it's early 1970s; the engine should be white. If you don't want white, Cummins painted their engines beige back then; and Tamiya Deck Tan XF-55 is a pretty good match. Personally, I'd go with white.

I wondered what you were going to do with that 330 hood. Is the 330 the Peterbilt equilivent of the Kenworth T370? what cab are you going to use? I like the colors on your 378. It's really quite nice. I saw on your site you built (or are building) the Lindberg van trailer. How's the fit? Is it accurate?

Wow! That's awesome. You are a Master Craftsman.

Interesting concept. Any shots of the finished product on a model (or test subject)?

That looks really nice. I like the weathering.

Well, I guess that answers that. Thanks, Dave.

I want to see them, too. I wonder if this kit can be convertd into an International 9900 Classic? Does any one know if it will be curbside or not?

Ok, so it's $53 US. Interesting. What about quality of Mobeius kits? I've never built one. Are they any good? Are they better than AMT? Personally, I think the truck is ugly, but that's just my opinion. And you know what they say about opinions! That being said, I'll probably pick one up because it's different & unique. Different's good.

Thanks. I'm sure Megahobby will get them listed soon, too.

Where? I don't see the stock number, nor could I find it on their Web site.

Simply amazing. Very nice.

That black one sort of looks like a Hummer.

Definately a work of art. Very impressive. I think I remember those things from when I lived in Louisiana.

Nice recovery.

Ok, so now it's really done! Added some quarter fenders from the AMT GMC General & some custom "GMC Trucks" mud flaps. http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc290/jmbongiovanni/1976%20GMC%20Astro/P2200002

De-Elegant used to make a conversion kit of the T2000, but he doesn't sell kits to the general public any more. He'll be happy to build one for you, if you want. Should cost you about an arm & a leg! Here's his Website: http://www.de-elegantmodeltrucks.com/
