toplessfury Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 I am wondering where they had the decals made? man what scale is that? it looks huge.
toplessfury Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 ill see what i can come up with. you looking for 1/24-1/25 scale?
Madd Trucker Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 I would like to know as wel so would Highway what site did you find it on
Ben Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 Hey guy's, the big truck is 1/25 and the little one is 1/87. I'm not sure if the show will be back on but i'd love to build a replica of that rig! You can see more pics on TruckModeler.com
highway Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 Leo was nice enough to send me the link he found them on: http://www.basketsbythebrowns.com/tcm/2010/June%2010%20Gal/June10Gal.htm The O'hare combo is the 9th set of pictures down, and the big one is 1:25 scale and the little one is 1:87 scale.
highway Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 By the way, yes I want to know where to get the decals!!!
Madd Trucker Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 From looking at the site looks like a bloke named Doug Musey built it
toplessfury Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 i cant find a picture that i can zoom in on to read what all of the writing says.
ARTEMIS1759 Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) Here are a couple more: OK so the first pic is their locations on the side. Must be 4 and you might be able to research the locals in Il using yahoo or google. I would say that the stickers pretty much remain the same from rig to rig just different locals.

ARTEMIS1759 Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 A few more and other trucks that would be cool builds.

highway Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 By the way, here's the pic I have for my avatar, and my desktop background on both my main computer and my laptop! I found it here: http://www.wreckerdriver.net/photos/ You have to sign up as a member there, but it's no different than signing up here! Also, one little side note, truck #903 is the "Mistress", Joey's truck, and if you look very closely at the top middle of the windshield under the visor in my pic, you will see "Mistress" there.
Ben Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 I have to say, I actually like Dougs build more than the actual truck. That super single with the Stemco hub sticking out on the pusher (to me) looks ugly! I don't really care for the roll bar loop on the boom either. I was also thinking Joey's truck had a sleeper. Bee a while since I seen the show.

Bee a while since I seen the show. I have to agree, Ben, I think a nice hub cover would look better, but I do like the light bar hoop. I think you might be thinking of truck 317 with the sleeper, I think it might be Tryke's truck, but not real sure.
fordmoparman01 Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 I saw a commercial on speed yesterday and I think it said that it will be on Friday night on Speed. I dont remember if it's re-runs or new. -Cody

I don't think any are new, I have the new ones set to record in my DVR! I never miss one!
Ben Posted June 16, 2010 Author Posted June 16, 2010 If I build one, it will just be a "what if" type setup I guess. I'm usually a stickler for accuracy but I have not seen one particular rig that they have that has everything I like. I mainly just like the paint scheme and the fact that it's a T800. I'm wondering if the entire chassis is that bright, light green? Anyone know? I've done some research and found that Doug Musey has a (business?) called Top Dog Models. It appears that he's more into 1/87 than 1/25. All his work is really nice though!!!!!

You never know, you just might build their NEXT truck before they even buy it!!
Ben Posted June 17, 2010 Author Posted June 17, 2010 That would be funny if someone built a model of a truck that they liked more than any tuck they currently have!
