Your welcome Ken

I don’t understand why people have to reply twice when someone has already gave a well short educated answer.

Your welcome. That second pic is your pic 😂 so you can see the difference

Thanks Scott I appreciate it. I guess it’s because I have such a deep passion (as you know) for trucks all my life and that’s all I’ve ever been around. Looking forward to another restoration.

Nice one Ken great idea to pair them up thanks for sharing.

I found one one of the truck on my Layout. Hope to get more pics of it

Thanks I appreciate it. Yes Don has a lot of great stuff in lots of scales.

Thanks for the compliment I appreciate it. Yes it took a lot of work to get it to stance it has now just like it’s big brother in 1/25 scale takes a lot of work. Glad you dropped in.

Not really Steve over my 35 years in the trucking industry Holland was my choice I never had a minute’s trouble out of a holland. Fontaine was the worst and Jost second worst. Holland fifth wheels always stay in adjustment where I always had to adjust the others. Your normal 😂

Nice updates and corrections. If you want to take that visor a little farther for accuracy purposes put a curve on the ends top and bottom reshaping the bottom for a correct look. Here’s a pic for reference if you decide to take it one step further.

I understand I have it really bad that’s why I don’t build as much and if I do it’s a simple one. I think the white wheels will not look silver to me.

Thanks for stopping by Dan.

Thanks Jürgen they are a fun build

Steve you’re NOT an idiot! I think it’s all that high end scratch building your doing lately is frying your brain 😂. Your counting is spot on sir.

I bet you did back in the day I sold several on eBay for some crazy money too. About the same time I owned my real truck Ertl came out with that limited run of the kit any remember that? I bought several of them and kept them till around 2006-08 and dropped them on eBay making a killing. Now I just have this one with an extra cab/interior and one I bought from Bill which is a flip lid with the airbag suspension. This also was one of my favorite Ertl kits when I built it as a teenager it went together so well and had no issues with tilting the cab and the gear shift hanging up or wouldn’t sit all the way down. Thanks for stopping by.
