Re: Daycab workhorse Pacific P510 P
 

Thanks Nate They are more or less static and JB welded in place..i just slipped some short lengths of BIC lighter springs over the the Ant ..great idea though ...may do some mods in the future .I was thinking of stopping at the music store and checking out the guitar strings..Im at that point where im adding some of the small details ..still rear mud guards to do as well


Thanks Very very much ..those kind of add on seem to add a bit more realizam. Ive seen some of the stuff some of the guys do with the 1/24 static models ..amazing some of the detail that goes into them ..My eyes and pateints are not quite that good ..anyway Thanks again Jo

There was a few Pacifics at the ATHS show in duncan so I did manage to get a few shots of the old girl sitting on a few fenders ..Both of the these trucks were carrying Log Jeeps so that was kind of cool..The owner of the Light green P9 was pretty impressed

Great pics Lou. I had hoped to do the same on sunday with the LW kenworth but the owner wasn't around.:(

Re: Daycab workhorse Pacific P510 P
 

Great photos! Can't help but notice the pride taken in the P9 Pacific. The Phillips screw heads are all matching, and perfectly aligned! That's a good looking truck.

The girl with cancer is doing well. Her name is Hannah. That's cool you are flying the purple.

Re: Daycab workhorse Pacific P510 P
 

I really like this truck...those spoke wheels really set this apart from the rest...

Who's rear tires are those? Do they fot stock tamiya rims....I could use a set for my Mack I'm building

We'll done on your build, I've been following rclogger and your builds for a while

Re: Daycab workhorse Pacific P510 P
 

Thanks Paul ..really enjoyed this build and following yours as well..On the weekend I met up with a fella that worked for pacific building the preloaders..This guy knew his stuff ...he instantly recognised it as a 510P and was pretty impressed ...we pointed out a few things that were off though ..Still a few things I want to add and finish though ..Thanks again and cheers

Re: Daycab workhorse Pacific P510 P
 

This is one of those trucks that if you showed it to somebody new to the hobby, parked along side a stock King Hauler they would probably never guess the two were related.
