In order to make room for my building of the 3 in 1 Tiger, and the Phantom Menace (in 48th). I rushed to finish this truck thingy!

It's the Italeri POS kit, nothing fits, and the molding design and sprue management is non-existent. But has nice decals.

THIS IS WHAT LORD CHADIFY, I KNEE I KNEE'S TRUCK SHOULD LOOK LIKE!!! DAMN! I HATE THIS MAN! #:-) (++) #:-)


I still need to apply one layer of future to tuck the decals down.

The truck is looking quite good Lord Dave!

Keep on trucking!

This is pretty cool, (or as you like to say "It's Neat" )

Pretty sharp looking model. Looks like it could be a "babe magnet" if a certain Lens type dude drove something like this around HK :-)

But, for the ultimate in reality,
And if you can make your own decals,
Google an image of Helga,and make a decal.

Verie nice indeed (++) A most expertile display of plasticine prowess.
The chrome looks verie nice, I remember when I did a a few car models way back when that the chrome parts had a tendancy to flake, did you experance any of that?

Now all you need is a trailer with a cargo. Maybe an ICBM? (++)

That is a cool truck though Dave. I really like the chrome and the blue metallic paint job.

The thing I noticed that brings it to reality is on your back deck plate, if you could put a scale 3' joy stick with your red and blue air lines hanging off it, plus the black power cable in between them two.

Red black in the middle then blue on the other side, you can have all 3 coiled if you want, or leave the black power cord straight, they can be purchased both ways.

Down in the soft skin section on one of the post that animal done, I gave the actual size of the lines, if you want to scale them down to what scale you have here. That is a pretty good looking Superliner. Does that model come with an engine, and if it does is it a Mack engine, or did they put in what ever.

I was looking at Italeri's truck's and I had to laugh when they described the transmissions in the trucks, cause they just must of heard of one transmission, and figured they all had that one.
Like the 9513 the 95 means the torque rating on the transmission, and the 13 is the amount of gears it has.

Well the 95 is for no bigger engine then a 350 HP, cause I had one, but here Italeri was saying a 9513 behind a 3408 cat which is a V8 cat engine and the smallest HP is 450, and goes a lot higher which would tear up that 9513 transmission in no time, it would of needed at least 12,500 pound of torque, and I forget what that number is, but it is not called a 95.

Mack makes the strongest transmission there is, they got a higher torque rating then all the other manufacturers, that is why most of the military trucks you see have Mack drive lines. The way to tell is the rears are pointed up.
