[Coil]

lookup accell supercoil, it was the thing to have before the MSD stuff came along

[How does it work?]

sorry, thought it was a legitimate question, lol. Ive hauled auction stuff like this before, at the end of the trip, when u make that last turn into the yard, u take a deep breath, look to the sky, and say thank u!  this one is tied down better than some i've seen.....

[How does it work?]

Looks like a couple of auction pcs, the bed is just strapped onto the truck for transport.

[What did you see on the road today?]

Seen this at the detail shop today, picture doesn't do the color justice, deep green met. Detail guy said it had about a 1/4 inch of dust on it this morning, first time out of the garage in 4 years!

[Western Star tractor]

rugged looking work truck. good job!

[Shorty Pete 359]

Good job, reminds me of one a local lumber mill had, and like my little short Ford, I bet it was fun to drive on wet pavement!

[BRBO Western Star 4964]

Nice, clean truck, I like the trailers too....

[Kenworth W980?]

The headlights i can live with, get rid of those stupid looking breather boxes, even thought that Western daycab is pretty cool with all the add ons.

[*AMT 1953 F-100 : Let's See Them !]

This one is from the early 90's, all could find was 1 b/w pic. truck was lemon yellow, blue frame and interior accents. Still have all the body parts to put it back together one day. oops, didnt see the AMT, this one had the tilt front end

[1/16th 2018 Camaro Promod stratch build made mostly of brass]

Good to have u back, i"ve always been intrigued by some of your chassis builds. great stuff!

[International Transtar 4200 Formerly a 4300]

Clean old truck, good job on the conversion

[Lamp guard]

I think ive still got some of these guards and the amber chicken lights in a box somewhere! There are still trucks around here using them, most have gone to the small peterbilt style led's now. Haven't really thought about em on my models.

[Aughhhh!! The 389 is being retired?????]

Even if it's phased out, just like the 359's, you will still see em around for the next 40 yrs or so, no huge concern...I got a friend that just ordered 4 new 2020 389's, all 72" sleepers, should b here in about a month. He bought 6 567's and 3 579's (1 has the EQIP lower aero package, cool looking truck) before the end of last yr, all silver met, all pulling tankers.

[1955 Chevy AWB drag car ?]

Maybe for arguments sake, the frt is a little too high, maybe the w/well could have been a little further forward, but a great looking model as is. I love the color and the decals.  here is one that sits abandon in an arkansas salvage yard....altered w/b and still got the straight axle and no, not for sale

[Acouple of topkicks]

[359 / tanker combo]

Nice looking rig, the stripes came really good

[What cool trucks (rigs or pick ups) have you seen lately?]

The internationl was sitting in a yard down the street from me, the autocar and the the chevy were at a logger's lot where i was working on a truck, the red freightliner is my weekend job, bathing and servicing it for the last couple of years, 96 model long hood classic, 500 cat, 18 speed

[What do you drive?]

My weekly driver is a 2000 chevy silverado 5.3 v8, weekend ride is my 71 bronco 310 hp 302crate motor w/ FI fuel injection, and on rare occasions i do test and tune nites on the 48 fiat for a buddy of my mine, 6 liter ls motor, runs 5.80's 1/8 mile

[Super glue question]

I still use the good ole orange/white testors, but i use the loctite with an accelerator for resin and scratchbuilding.

[Galion 12 1/2 Ton Hydraulic Rough Terrain Crane]

Tom, u need to slow down, ur making it look too easy! Seriously, cant wait to see this one done

[Oshkosh M 1070]

WOW! Thats all i can say at the moment.......

[B.R.B.O. International F2674, D8H and lowboy trailer]

well done on all of it, I've done the backyard dirt trick before, even mixed dirt with water in a spray bottle!

[GMC 7500 Spreader Truck]

With all the problems u had, it came out extremely well, I like the bed.

[Super glue question]

I use Loctite PROFESSIONAL from my walmart, blue tube with red/white letters, and for some silly reason its in the arts and crafts section, 4.95 a bottle. It normally last a long time, but I got a couple a while back that i had to take back because it was thick. Turn the bottle up and make sure its thin.  On a side note, I used the gorrilla before, but found the loctite has a lot more in it for about the same price.
