Want another??? If you're into older vehicles, check this one out--> http://www.aitruckmodels.com/ They don't stock engines, but most of their subject matters... Whew! Between the three we've covered here, I ended up drooling on myself again... I've been doing that a lot... :D

Welcome back to the modelling world. I beleive you are at the right place to find answers to your modelling questions.

I also offer resin cast truck parts to better detail model trucks. I do offer a resin copy of the Detroit series 60 diesel engine.

It is a resin copy of the Italeri engine in 1/24 scale. I do use it in 1/25 scale with no problem.

Here is the resin cast engine kit.

This is the engine in the 1/25 Kenworth T800 I have built.

If you would like to see all my resin parts look in my photobucket account files that start with Plaskit.

Also uploaded are photos of real truck, shows I attended, a few truck brochures and odel I have built.

Here is the link to the Photobucket account:

Your Welcome, Mike

This is another item I just came out with, I thought with the Pete 378 back out from Italeri this would be a nice touch for it, a valve cover with the Detriot Series 60 script on it, It would also work with the resin Series 60 engine that Daniel listed here. ;)

Another option for the Italeri 378 kit, an updated Ultra High Roof cab, has the larger side windows with the rivet detail under them, larger safty glass in pass door & updated door handles and the back of the cab is set up for a walk through sleeper, working on a 70 inch unibilt to go with it now as well as a daycab panel.
