  1. A lot of AMT truck kits came with those beacons you are in search of, you can probably find them on Ebay for sale( the lights) But depending on what you are looking for and how many I might be able to help you out.
  2. I still personally find muscle cars very boring and would rather build the same ole NASCAR kit over and over and over and over again with different decals on the body. But that is what I enjoy.
  3. All that matters is you enjoy what you are building.
  4. I dont get much choice since I build mostly Japaneses kits, that is how they are ,but it does not bother me in the slightest since my manhood is not connected to whether a kit does or does not have a engine.
  5. So you are saying its like building muscle car kits with the same ole big block engines, yeah, that would bore me too, but NASCAR, nah, love it, and love the tediousness of it, cant get enough of it.
  6. Thank you for the link, those are some big sheets , wow.
  7. Thank you guys, the work is not perfect, but each one is practice for the next I will build
  8. Yes, crys a lot Busch I use different thickness, the floor/frame and the floor/ceiling between the two decks is .80, the sides/roof are .30, the front piece is .20 , the interior is made up different sizes .20-.40, the lift gate is .60.
  9. It............is a secret , shhhhh
  10. Look at the upper deck, I used masking tape to double as a sort of carpeting that is used up there, aluminum paint on the floor of the upper deck Looking towards the front from the rear doors Looking towards the front of the upper deck, the round stock that is on the roof is gas can holders Rear doors in the open position and closed, I am not happy with them, I think I might redo them. ( I still need to install the lower track aka rest of the flooring ) Looking at the deck railing where it will be And with the ladders in place, those are the other kit items, they are from a junk fire engine, I am gonna need to get another fire truck kit to junk now before I building my next trailer
  11. Moving forward, inside upper area painted, interior pieces in place One of the kit parts being used. Mirror chrome vinyl applied on the gen compartment Working on the observation deck railing Random looking through the curbside door
  12. I am agree, it looks soooooooooooooooooo much better without those hideous scoops .
  13. Well done, I like what you did.
  14. Never said they were not fine, I was trying to point out that they might not fit the bodies they are made for because he sizes them to use on his slot car bodies and not kit bodies, Ive used his decals in the past but have not in a long time.
  15. You know, kind of yes, its not as crisp of molding as we are used too from the other guys, and does have that Fujimi-ess feeling to it. But it still looks like a nice kit and I am cant wait to get it built.
  16. I got mine direct from China, Hobby Easy, Hobby Easy gets the kits first because NuNu Models is based in China, so its the same as we get Revell/AMT kits here first before the rest of the world, Japan should have them very soon. Yes, I did see that he has them in stock. I
  17. Now that kit is out, lets take a look's see
  18. Painted the interior pieces, almost ready for installation
  19. Yes, look at the first post in this thread, I posted the last two that I built. I wish everything was square, its close, and the actual trailer shell was a lot more square before I screwed things ups , I need to redo the roof , as its not square at the front part, I will re do it later on down the road.
  20. Interior pieces(most), ready for paint
  21. Our 15 Altima has the CVT, not a big fan of it.
