Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

This really came out nice! It really reminds me of the AMT 1/25 model kit. Keep up the great work.

Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

Thanks Brian .. it should remind you of it as rhat is what I based most of the build on . As I have the model kit and took a lot of measurements and ideas from it ..also the decal are scanned and resized and some altered from the original 1/25 kit

Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

Hey Jason. For some reason your video and my phone don't want to play together. But it does work on the iPad.
Just so ya know. Mike

Ps. I wanted that load by the shop and not the rock wall. Go build a loader and move it please.

Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

Wicked! I wanna play too!

Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

WOW That truck is toooo nice to get dirty... Thanks for the photo's

Re: my first semi build (dump)
 

Thank you Greg it's definitely not too pretty to get dirty I need the dirt to hide all the flaws in the body can't wait to get it covered in dirt and dust

Thanks reg can't wait to get to get some loads from the Volvo ..there is lots of work at my house to do too after we move some dirt at yours ;)


It is complete enough to do work but there still a few things left to do to it

Re: my first semi build (dump)
