kilrathy10 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 The guy at LHS where I bought the shuttle says there is a PE set to replace all the launch tower structure. He told me it's it's around 250 dollars, just for the PE set. I'm sure it would really set it off. But that's a pretty chunk of change.Oh, yeah...Mega Hobby has that....And it is quite a good chunk of change.....I don't know when I'm ever going to build it, but I know that I am.....Too many of these kits go unbuilt.....I just may have to get on it.....

guitarsam326 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 FINALLY !!!!! Thanks, Matt.... I can't wait for someone to make a hood/grill conversion to back date these to an 06/07 model or even back to the 7.3's. Nice score JT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petetrucker07 Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I can't wait for someone to make a hood/grill conversion to back date these to an 06/07 model or even back to the 7.3's. Nice score JT! The machine shop I worked in before I started driving made the internal parts for the turbo on the 7.3 liter. They even developed an aftermarket turbo for it too.

Old Buckaroo Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I had given up on finding an Italeri WS and stumbled upon this on ebay at a bargain price. I had originally wanted it for another project but I like the decals so well It will most likely stay as the boxart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superpeterbilt Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Well, my Hobby Lobby got the DM600 kits in. For $24 out the door, it's a great donor for my stash of Mack resin cabs. I will have to scoop up about 10 of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olskoolrodder Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Quite a few,actually.... Also not pictured yet is an AMT Freightliner cabover bought 2 days ago,and a Mobius International Prostar I picked up today (wasn't planning on buying another since I have all these tractors and only 1 trailer to build,LOL,but sadly found out that a good friend is closing his model shop doors soon and it was too good of a going-out-of-business deal to pass up ). NOW I just need to get to building (and a few more trailers,LOL ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
