Foxer Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 That's a stunning 1:1 .. this should be a stunning model .. looks like it's heading that way so far! Are you going to paint and letter it as the 1:1 that inspired you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chariots of Fire Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 George: Would you be offended at some constructive criticism of your project? I think I see something that might help but wanted your permission to speak of it first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwtrucker Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 George, Great work on scratchbuilding the cab. Don't know if you know this but, you can buy a resin cab conversion in 1/25th scale of the Mack B-61 from American Industrial Truck Models. Here is a link to theri site. http://www.aitruckmodels.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loadmat Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Great Work! I'm a Scratch-Builder too, and I admire work you've done. I am currently converting an F-1 to an F-7 - will post pictures soon. Gregor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
