Porky Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) Hey Guys, Just got in a new master part crafted by Ryan Mlynek, An updated Peterbilt 1/24 scale cab, it has been updated to the late model style with the ultra roof, larger door windows, larger safty glass in pass door, under window rivet detail, updated door latches and has interior detail in the headliner, back wall is set up for the walk through sleepers. Let me know what you think, should be ready for sales in a week or so. Can use any of the 1/24 scale Italeri pete hoods with it or any other hood that was made to fit the Italeri cabs.

WOW GREAT WORK I WILL GET THAT ONE FOR SURE
highway Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 Looks good! I bet I know someone else (a certain Peterbilt modeler here ) who will want some! Porky, have you ever considered a Freightliner Classic XL Condo cab to go with the hood you have on your site? I drove two of them during my driving career and the only scale one I ever found was this 1:32 scale toy:
Jim B Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 That looks nice, Eric. Too bad I'm not a Peterbilt guy, but I know someone who is!

Hey Jim,,,your the KW guy, I know,,,well I have something coming that might interest you too my friend. I have just worked out a deal with Bill Drennen to cast his 1/25th scale W900L straight windshield conversion kit. Its a complete conversion with the updated cab, 900L hood and all the goodies to go with it. Will be a few weeks or so maybe a month as he just put the masters in the mail today. Will also be doing his 1/25th scale Pete 379 ext complete conversion, cab, hood and all the goodies for it, his 1/25th scale Pete 358 hood conversion and last but not least the 1/24th scale Pete 379 hood conversion that he offered, So I am thinking I am gona be pretty bussy for awhile makin' molds Edited March 23, 2010 by Porky
Blake Rogers Posted March 23, 2010 Posted March 23, 2010 dominique hi there i am from fort mac and your right that is a killer looking cab

I drove two of them during my driving career and the only scale one I ever found was this 1:32 scale toy: Hey Hey, I might have something for you too, I have a master for a Fl Condo, it needs some work so I am not sure about casting it but I do have a midroof FL with a classic hood listed on e-bay and I think I may have one more of those cabs, it has opening doors and all, I also have one of the condo roofs left but you would have to cut the roof off the midroof and fit the condo top to it,,,the condo top needs a bit of work but is useable, the cabs are the last out of the mold before it gave out so they will need work too, let me know if you are interested and I can send you some pics.

FrankK100E Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I'm looking for some of the newer battery boxes for the W900 to put on my T600! Someone had them, I know that AITM has the older versions for the W900A.

You're killing me! I'm going to have to get about (6) more of the Revell of Germany W900s. How are those torsion bars suspensions coming? Edited March 24, 2010 by Jim B

Someone had them, I know that AITM has the older versions for the W900A. Dave used the battery boxes from the Revell USA/Monogram Kenworth W900 for those. I think they're late 1970s early 1980s. I don't know if Gary Wallace has newer ones or not. He has a lot of KW stuff.

How are those torsion bars suspensions coming? Hey Jim Just go ahead and order you at least a case of those donor kits Was waiting on a single axle torsion bar set up to arrive so I could do one mold with both the tandem parts you sent and the single axle set up. The other parts arrived today so i will try to get to clayin' up the parts in the morning.
Porky Posted March 24, 2010 Author Posted March 24, 2010 Dude nice.Count me in for two. Hey Dave No problem, I will let you know when they are ready
Jim B Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) Just go ahead and order you at least a case of those donor kits I don't think my wallet, or SWMBO, could handle it! Edited March 24, 2010 by Jim B

Old Albion Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 I think the amount of aftermarket parts and the quality of them is exceptional!! Is that Peterbilt cab the right one for the 389 and 388? The detail is very impressive. Might have to get one. Dave
69_charger Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 the 388 and 389 cab are the same ( i think, its just the hood length differance, my Father used to own 3) as for the other kits, do any come with windows???? thanks!
Kostas Parchas Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Hey Porky, Are you thinking we are milionairs?????????? LOL LOL :lol: :lol: I need 4 or 5 monthly payments just for my (I_want_to_buy) parts you are casting... Kostas.

LOL LOL :lol: :lol: I need 4 or 5 monthly payments just for my (I_want_to_buy) parts you are casting... Kostas. Hello Kostas my friend - You just let me know what you need or want and I will take care of you, no problems on this end.

The detail is very impressive. Might have to get one. Dave Hey Dave - I think the cab will work with the 388 hoods and be correct, the 389 hoods will fit it I think but I belive they had internal breathers. I guess the breather mount detail could be removed from this cab and then you would be good to go.

Hey Brett - The pete cab, you can use the windshield from the 378 donor kit, the side windows would have to be made from clear sheet stock, same the the windows in the studio sleeper you are wanting. They are all flat and no trouble to make from the clear stock, the windshield for the studio cab is the same as a T600 KW but it dose not come with one.
69_charger Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 ok, sweet, its gunna be a while before i can buy one becasue i gotta get a computer too! .... but this way i can see what it will look like, with a 3d program..
