  1. Sure looks like 8-lug front drive hubs to me!
  2. If you're a newcomer to the game, completely unknown to the OEM, they're going to ask for a very large portion of the licensing fees for the term up front. So, if you want a three-year deal they want 18 months worth of fees up front and the remainder on a set schedule. I've also heard that GM is the easiest to deal with. FCA now Stellantis not so much, especially for a US based company as all their licensing is done through a European agency.
  3. There were a whole bunch of bare chassis in the trailer yard today so I snapped some pictures. Bare chassis, bare generator chassis, 53' container, 53' standalone reefer container, and the front of a reefer container that uses the generator. Also, my truck photobombed a few pictures. ? https://public.fotki.com/fabrux/container-chassis/
  4. Should still be in business, an order from him came through my hands a month or two ago.
  5. The brewery here in town ships beer out exclusively in refrigerated vans. ??
  6. Aside from slicing and dicing with the AMT Lightning and MPC Bronco that Revell kit is the way to go. Good sources for the M5OD are the AMT Ranger or the Lindberg '97 F-150.
  7. I did some digging around in my collection and the wheels from the Baldwin Motion Camaro fit pretty good. Fireball FMR-203 looks like it might work better, though.
  8. The entirety of my company's fleet are triaxle chassis with the ability to extend to haul 53' containers. Half of them also have generators on them for refrigeration units. They just bought around 60 of them for a new contract.... I can provide reference pics if necessary. ?
  9. Considering SJR started with a kit of a 1979 Oldsmobile 442 and grew from there, I think they'll do just fine with the Gen 6 car. ??
  10. I meant disc wheels as in non-spoked wheels. ?
  11. https://m.facebook.com/groups/192098637494309/permalink/4234060359964763/?sfnsn=mo
  12. Wouldn't it be great if Round 2 would put some money into these trailers to make a modern 53 footer? Disc wheels, air ride suspension, feet in the landing gear instead of wheels.... ?
  13. The domain redirect seems to be faulty but you can still go directly to the Squarespace site. https://cat-crow-a7r3.squarespace.com/
  14. These are all new tooling, designed by Jim Rogers.
  15. The Chase Elliott 2021 car will be out by the end of the year! They're shooting for August but that may get bumped. It takes about six months to go from drawings to a cut mold.
  16. The only thing I can find on Facebook related to that site is a comment thread accusing the site owner of copying parts. Can you provide the profile of who you bought from?
  17. Who makes these? I need them! ?
  18. The roof and rear seat are rather tricky to get a hold of these days. Also, here's a kit history article I wrote (and originally posted here): https://www.sprue.xyz/articles/monogram_squarebody
  19. Looks great! I'd buy one. ?
  20. I noticed that the listing for the Alexander's Drag Time Deora has disappeared from the Stevens International page. Is it still listed anywhere else? Has it been cancelled? ?
  21. Continuing the Fox Body Mustang kit theme, I present to you the Revell Venice Fox Body 'Mustang' family! https://www.sprue.xyz/articles/revell-venice-fox-body
