Thank you for sharing your method for detailing the under carriage on your models. I have always wondered how you got such a realistic looking finish.

Your experience reminds me of a problem we had with "The Big Brown Truck" people during the Covid shutdown. They were short on drivers and hiring anyone that was breathing to work as drivers. We were expecting a delivery and on the web site it was supposed to be delivered on a given day. We noticed a delivery truck sitting for a time in the street around the corner from our house. The driver looked to be playing with her phone for about half an hour before driving off. I called their local distribution center and who ever I talked to said the driver couldn't find our address. I mentioned to him about the driver we had seen sitting around the corner from our house, but he said he had no way of knowing if that was the one delivering our package. Two days later the distribution center called that they had our package, so we drove twenty-five miles there to pick it up. The packaging was damaged so we had them unwrap it so we could verify that it was alright. Since it was OK we got our package and left without even an "I'm sorry" from the company. Since then whenever I have ordered something online, I always specify that FedEx not be used, or I cancel my order.

Contact the person or company that is shipping you whatever this is and let them know about the runaround you're getting. Possible they can apply some pressure on their end with Fed-X.

Great looking color paint and finish. Like the wheels and the rear roll pan.

Like the color.

Outstanding grimmy details on all of the trucks and the yard. The people all look very realistic with their expressions on their faces and their clothing.

Great looking finishes. Like the sponsors on the side and the dirty tread marks on the bed ramps.

Great clean looking build. What wheels did you use? Like the real wood push bumper.

Beautiful looking paint finish and the color is an all-time favorite. Great looking engine and interior details.

Bright color and great looking finish and decals. Clean looking body trim and like the way you did the under-carriage finish.

Thank you for sharing all the beautiful pictures. Always enjoy the variety of cars and trucks and the different build styles.

Why is it whenever you need to make an insurance claim, "it would have been covered if you had paid more"? You bought their insurance, but it just doesn't cover you when you need it.

Check your homeowners policy as well since the loss of the food may be covered.

We have been having some very oppressive heat lately, and I realize that we are not alone on that issue. We had a pop-up shower this morning and minimal wind, so we enjoyed having morning coffee and tea on the covered patio watching the birds come and go on the feeder and the gentle rain. Sort of nice to put life in neutral sometimes.

I agree with Harry on the appearance of your build and a great color for showing the body lines. Like the screens you added to the front grill areas.

Beautiful paint finish and color. Like the interior detailing.

I haven't built many models with a 6 cylinder, but here are a couple. The first is from the '47 Chevrolet and the other is the Mobius Hudson.

Ah man, I miss the chuckles.

Great looking finish, sort of the "Acid rain look".

Think the round lights look better than the square ones.

Looks like you're going all out on this. Like the doors and trunk work. Sort of beyond my comfort zone but like seeing how it's done.

You're right about that. We only had time for a short stay and the temps were already getting beyond my melting point. There were many cars coming in as we were leaving as well.

You may be correct. I'm going to have to look in my stash tonight and see if I can find the model I mentioned.

#1 Baja Bug. Had this when living near the Pismo Beach area. Working on a conversion from the Revell '68 Type 1 now. #2 This was our '10 Jeep that we modified thru the years. Several trips to Colorado and a num,ber of Jeep Jamborees.

You mentioned a "Canopy" or maybe a camper shell. The original issue of the C3500 extended cab dually GMC pickup has a solid sided camper shell in it. While it is a long bed it wouldn't be that hard to shorten the shell. There are no side windows in the shell, but again you could add those as needed.
