Superpeterbilt Posted August 24, 2015 Author Share Posted August 24, 2015 I had a few things waiting for me on the porch today. I got a Revell race car trailer to tow behind the Ford Race hauler.Also there's another diecast old school Great Dane, and a diecast 66 Ford F100 that will be turned into an F800.

tonye66 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Just scored an AMT Kenworth T600a sealed for $20 off the bay. Cheapest I've found. I refuse to pay a lot for it knowing the work that has to go into it to build an accurate version.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim B Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Nice stuff, guys. Terry, I seriously have to get one of those vintage Grate Dane trailers before you buy them all! But then again, if you buy them all, I'll know where they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbill Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 haha.... Terry, you bought all the gravel trailers, so i had to go a different route kit-wise, haha. Clayton, i work what is called 'flat rate' fixing cars, i had a good productive week [got paid for 80 hours in a 46 hour week], so i had some play money Chuck, i am quite sure my UPS guy is not a model builder, as everything always shows up............

Superpeterbilt Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 I nabbed a few things for a new project idea. I grabbed a 60 Chevy pickup on ebay to convert into a C70. I also bought a 61 GMC brochure, as I plan to get a few more of these kits and build a couple as GMC 5500's. I also scored a Chevy 409 from Bismark to turn into a 301 V6 for this projects. The frame will be scratch built because of its unique shape. heres some shots of the brochure I plan on building the C70 as a wrecker. I couldn't resist getting started.

truckabilly Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Wow, I like this idea. It is always pleasure to build a model with reference material like this. Cannot wait to see it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superpeterbilt Posted September 4, 2015 Author Share Posted September 4, 2015 I was out and about today, so I stopped and gave some more of my money to Hobby Lobby. The mailman also dropped off another diecast Great Dane. Jim, I'm up to 4 now! I have a Coke one in a box somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
