kilrathy10 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) With the addition of my newly scratched car hauler, I decided to post it with some of my older builds... I hadn't built a tractor unit for it, yet, so I just threw one of my 579's out front.... To tell you the truth, I kinda like it... Works great for my die casts, as you can see with my load of die cast Camaros.... Anyway.... I hope y'all enjoy these as much as I had fun building them.... Edited April 9, 2020 by kilrathy10
Modelbuilder Mark Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Wow, you have been busy. Looking good. How do you store them to reduce dust?
Hermann Kersten Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 you're a busy guy , but the haulers, the complete rigs and, of course the cars, look fantastic. Hermann
tbill Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Looking good! I remember watching all those come together, great to see them again. I’m not gonna lie though, that ‘not orange’ rig looks out of place?
DrKerry Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 All look good JT! Liking the single unit truck as well!! Be kool to build one!!
vincen47 Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Throw some orange stripes on that white 579 and you’ve got yourself a fleet. Nice work, and a great way to display your cars. I’d love to see a group photo of your enclosed car haulers, too.

Gotta get some orange stripes and take some more pics of my race rigs.... Excellent idea, Vince...?
TECHMAN Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 ??? Couldn't find a "bright" orange ????? ? Those are some REALLY NICE work!!!! DJ

To be honest, Bro, I can't... Dust gets EVERYWHERE... I have to dust them off, periodically... I'm at a loss as for what to do about it... Individual display cases are just too expensive... And I just don't have the space for the big glass ones, so I get lots of dust.... ? I'll have to do some more thinking....

I'll have to do some more thinking.... Maybe under-the-bed storage bins?, like Rubbermaid or similar? Anything to help protect all the effort and hard work.

Sam I Am Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 That white tractor sure looks outa place in that sea of orange. Kinda reminds me of the old Sesame street song...?
tbill Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 JT, check your local craigslist or Facebook garage sale, maybe you can score a display case for cheap, I had two of them given to me.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 Great looking fleet!! I think that the cabover KW is my favorite. Great scratch building on all those trailers!!
kilrathy10 Posted April 11, 2020 Author Posted April 11, 2020 I see them from time to time down here, as well... I catch them every once in a while on offer up, and a buddy of mine had spotted a couple outside a beauty shop the other day.... I just don't have the room, as of yet... But those are a good option...
David G. Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 Nice fleet you have there. Most car model builders would love to a transporter in collection and you have three! ? They look very well built, excellent work! David G.
