highway Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Got some new goodies today! Need some tweaking still, but the basis for the master is coming along. This is made to fit directly onto the Revell snap kit chassis (except the front of the frame needs to be stretched for the longer hood). The interior also fits this new cab. The new dash needs to be tweaked, as it doesn't fit the Revell tub as well as I want it to. I also have battery boxes, air cleaners, sun visor, and rear cab extenders. I'm hoping I can have this all set early next year. I also posted an image of the Freightliner Century last week. Here is it's brother, the Columbia. Which would people rather see become avalable in the future? SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!! Of course, that will be once I have some extra! On the Freightshakers, any plans for a Cascadia so I could maybe build my 1:1??
KJ790 Posted November 14, 2014 Author Posted November 14, 2014 Dammit boy. ThatKW looks awesome. Are you gonna offer the hood as a conversion? I personally prefer the columbia more than the century If all goes as planned, I would consider selling the hood as a conversion. It is made to fit with the curved cowl cab of the AMT T600 as well. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!! Of course, that will be once I have some extra! On the Freightshakers, any plans for a Cascadia so I could maybe build my 1:1?? I actually do have plans for a Cascadia. I have been working on it on and off for the last few weeks. I hope to have a drawing finished up in a month of so.

Car Man Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Freightliner Columbia for me please Edited November 15, 2014 by Car Man
Jim B Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 The W900L with the Aero sleeper looks really promissing. Might just have to get one of those.
truckmodeller Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Freightliner Columbia for me! Any chance of a Pete 387?
Truck parts Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Man, I'am in for all of your stuff. I will just send you my paid check.
KJ790 Posted November 18, 2014 Author Posted November 18, 2014 And another Prototype... This master had some issues that made it very difficult to cast. I need to remake the master and then remake the mold before I will be able to sell any of these.
Chris guthro Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Hurry up and start selling them kw hoods!! I want atleast 2!!

Petetrucker07 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I just received a big box of parts today. They all look great. The rims are very nice, the tires are perfect. Highly recommend Kurts products, worth every penny. Will be ordering more for sure.
KJ790 Posted January 18, 2015 Author Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Thanks Clayton! I wanted to update everyone, I have been in the process of remastering all of my rims to make them fit even better with kit tires. My new 24.5" 2-hole rims, 1/24 scale 2-hole rims, 22.5" 2-hole rims, and 22.5" 5-hole rims are in stock now! Edited January 18, 2015 by KJ790
fantacmet Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) If you didn't know, ALPS discontinued production of their printers in 2010, and cartridges are supposed to be discontinued in 2015. That is one of the reasons I moved away from the ALPS, not to mention the cost of getting them repaired. thankfully I found something a lot more durable and still prints white. There is a company making ALPS Cartridges now. Can't remember who. You can Also find ALPS printers under the Okidata name, but again discontinued, though parts are being made. However I'm interested to know what you found that prints the white? Liking those BUD wheels Edited January 24, 2015 by fantacmet
mdlbldrmatt135 Posted January 25, 2015 Posted January 25, 2015 KJ, Just wanted to say thanks for the tires I ordered.... They'll lift the F-650 perfectly once I get the bump turned off of the rims!!!!
KJ790 Posted January 25, 2015 Author Posted January 25, 2015 Thanks guys! Glad those tires fit the F-650 rims for you Matt.

KJ790 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks Justin. I am working on a project now that you had talked to me about at the Fulton show. If it works out then I am hoping to have some at the Utica show
Mike77 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 The resin 70" hi-rise Peterbilt sleeper I got from KJ @ Double Take arrived today and it's fantastic! If you're on the fence about getting one (or more) I say go for it! Thanks KJ
Petetrucker07 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Kurt does very nice work. I can't wait to get my hands on that trailer he's work in on too.
