Ben Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 That's awesome Dave, very nice work! I'm confused though, a few posts above you were making a set forward axle hood??
cargostar Posted September 30, 2012 Author Posted September 30, 2012 As I was finishing up the 9400 hood, I started on a 9900 hood
signguy2108 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Waitng on the 9900i, and speaking of travelall's, this is probably the only one around here.
BigBad Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Gee, these news are just as good as the Prostar's! So before long we'll have a full class8 International lineup. The 9900 is one sweet looking machine. I could imagine a 9900 on a Lonestar frame and mechanicals. You're going to be busy with orders from the guys around here Dave...
hooknladderno1 Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Hi Dave, It looks GREAT! I would really like to see a photo or photos of your parts/kits assembled. Some of us may not know what all of your kits look like together. Look forward to seeing the projects in the pipeline. Thanks! David Edited October 1, 2012 by hooknladderno1
EaglePassNative Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Well...... Its DONE!!! ;D Not shown, but included, is a vacuumformed windshield. If anyone is interested in one, drop me a pm. I just received mine from Cargostar today. I ordered it from him Friday just 4 days ago and it arrived quickly and well packed. Let me put in a plug for Dave for who ever has not actually seen his castings in person. This guy knows what he's doing !!! This 9400 day cab is awesome. I also have a Lonestar day cab that he made which is also awesome although I didn't know It was his at the time that I bought it on e-bay. You won't go wrong picking up these castings. They are Great!!!. Now I just need to get busy building.

Some of us may not know what all of your kits look like together. Look forward to seeing the projects in the pipeline. Thanks! David Well- this is his LoneStar daycab and Harley grille. (Note- I removed the LoneStar scripts and handles from the doors). Casting quality was fantastic, price was great, and delivery turnaround time was blisteringly fast. I'll definitely be doing more business with Dave... especially when he gets that D-Series pickup and Travelall on the market. Cough, cough...
cargostar Posted April 9, 2013 Author Posted April 9, 2013 Finally happy with the shape and contours of the hood. Been working on the fit of the grill and refining the details.

BigBad Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Finally happy with the shape and contours of the hood. Been working on the fit of the grill and refining the details. Now this, THIS is the one I want! Check is in the... Erhh, Paypal's ready when you are Dave!
Chuck Most Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Errhhh, You finished with that one Chuck?? Nope, it still looks pretty much like that, only with a fine layer of dust on it. Still up in the air on doing it as a tractor or a wrecker. Oh, and it's been a while- gotta pester Dave once more about that D-Series and Travelall... To repeat Robert's statement... my Paypal is ready when you are.
bandit1 Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 Y'all keep asking about Travelall's!?....Take a gander on his facebook page!...Hes got pics of one in the works!!! https://www.facebook.com/ModelsByDave?fref=ts Sorry Dave but i couldnt resist!
cargostar Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 Yup, I have a Travelall in the works...its in a thread on here somewhere....... For those don't have Facebook, here are the pics that are on Facebook
Chuck Most Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Again, Dave.... put me down for at least 12 D-series pickups and another dozen Travelalls. Well, maybe not all at once...
kiwicol Posted April 14, 2013 Posted April 14, 2013 Where can we buy these from? i have looked at the website but they are not listed
cargostar Posted April 14, 2013 Author Posted April 14, 2013 Honestly, I haven't had a chance to get them on the site..... If you see something you want, just drop me a pm and I can fill you in on the details.
BigBad Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Hey Dave, I see you're quite busy with all things IH, how's that 9900 cab kit coming along?
cargostar Posted August 12, 2013 Author Posted August 12, 2013 Well, its been a bit since an update so here it is.... I shot some black on the hood, and silver on the grill to give them a different finish than primer for a final look over. Don't worry about the white on the hood. Its just plastic dust from another project. And here is one of the other projects. A daycab conversion for the Moebius Prostar. The day cab will be offered as just the cab, or with a pair of quarter fenders and fuel tank steps as most of the day cabs do not have the aero side skirts. Another project that has appeared is: A heavy set forward axle IH S-Series. This will come with the cab and interior also.
ap40rocktruck Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Dave, Fantastic work & so happy to see all of the binders coming, Great patterning on the hoods & cabs, especially to see someone adding in the under hood detail (hood structure) as it is always left out by the plastic kit makers, and most other resin casters.

hooknladderno1 Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Dave, The Prostar daycab looks GREAT! David
mikemodeler Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Still waiting on the D series and the Travelall Dave......
cargostar Posted August 13, 2013 Author Posted August 13, 2013 You and Chuck..... I'm thinking that once the 9900, and the Prostar vacate my bench, the Travelall may take up residence. Or the Loadstar, or Cargostar, or an American LaFrance 700, or........
jeffs396 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 How's the Workstar front clip coming along Dave?
