Hey kaf the truck looks even better in person. I saw it at the eclc show last weekend, I wanted to see you and introduce myself but I wasn't sure who u were LOL. I only came for half an hour to buy parts and check the trucks out and then I split.

Thanks again Tony, it was great meeting you as well. And it was great seeing your rigs, I've been admiring them in all the show pics and to finally see them was a treat.

Keith, you've created and built one of the best truck n trailer combos by far:cool:
This one is a keeper right? You can't part with this beauty:eek: that would be like Reg selling his 850 Kenworth:eek::eek:.... Ain't gonna happen! Lol

Great looking rig, can't wait to see it in person someday.

Thanks Sue, I am going to try to make it to Indy this year, but it's right in between two weeks in cape cod and a week in Mexico this year so it will be tight, but I'm going to try. It would be great to see your trucks and Mario's as well.

Keith,
On Ebay search DCP on page 9 or 10 as well as page 24 or 25 is a replica of your tractor in 1/64 scale did not know if you had one or were interested. One is hooked to a tanker the other to a dump trailer.
