I didn’t know that this place existed until now, but I have actually purchased a set of their tires and one of the 6v-71 engines they list from a supplier on EBay named stsupply out of Canada. He has had some of the other products from their website along with a lot of other model truck related products including items from Illini replicas, Scenes Unlimited, Dan’s models, and others.

I seem to have that problem with most of the popular aftermarket vendors who are still in business, with a few exceptions.The last few orders from Paul have been pretty fast though. The only major problem that I had was on my second order from him that somehow got lost in the mail, but Paul made it good by sending out another order, even though it wasn’t his fault. The lost package eventually showed up too,  so I just paid for the second one, as it wasn’t cost effective to pay shipping to Canada to send it back.

I finely got them in the mail they are well worth getting !

Yes it is  Trucks in Scale is his web site .

Well look at that. Maybe I should have waited to instead get the whole package with those newer round lights and the hood. I had figured I would just modify the kit fenders and cut out the grille shroud, and use the slightly older, Peterbilt version, of the round lights.

Good news, my photo etch arrived today and it came with the headlight buckets! I don’t need to place another separate order just to get them. They were not in the photos when I ordered them from ST Supply on EBay.

This is excellent, now I have all I need. I don’t mind altering the fenders myself, so no need for me to get the hood or the full set.

Peterbilt. I got all excited, but didn’t take them out of the plastic to look at the back until you asked.

I suppose not all is lost, there are two grilles in the bag, I could use the Peterbilt style with a White Freightliner and get the two bump for a later model FLC, or I think I could reshape them. Depends on price and availability, I guess.

Is this guy the only onlinesource for 1/25 scale White Freightliner cabover grills? If you want to sell one of yours, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.. ?
