Thats a great looking build Ian, and thank you for the suggestion!

What a beauty.. Simply perfect!

thanks for that bit of info

thanks for responding..your build looks great

Although most of my builds are in the Truck side of the forum, i am a race fan. I am planning on doing my old favorite DW's Daytona winning Tide ride.. Looking for suggestions on what color would best be used on it.. Mainly in spray can form. Thanks

Thank you Mike

Somehow missed this when it was posted.. Great looking build, love the color combo, makes it pop

Thank you for your kind words

Looking great

Coming along great. The details are amazing

Looking great.

Thank You for all the compliments!

Thank you to both of you.. This has been probably my most satisfying build!

Thanks Charles! I should have given you the credit for the hose lines also.. They are elastic that i colored with a sharpie, then weathered them. That was another change we made to the real truck after the pic!

Took 7 months to complete, but finally done.. Started with the Mack R685st kit. The tank bed and pretty much everything else was scratch built. Want to thank Charles(Chariots of fire) for the idea to make the elliptical tank. And to Jeff Bulmer(go nitro) for sending me the chrome tree from the Trumpeter LaFrance kit, when all I needed was the federal Q. The first pic is of our actual truck. That pic was after we received it, so the red wheels were soon painted gold to match our colors..

Looks great.. Is that some led wiring i see coming from the tail lights?

Missed this somehow. Turned out wonderful,, great work!

Just so impressed on how real your builds look.. Amazing job and photography

Amazing details on your build..
