Re: My Globe
 
Thanks for the kind words guys. Slowly but surely it is coming along.
John,
Thanks, but The color wouldn't be shyt with out those master pieces you produce. Those fenders are top notch and I would highly recommend them to other members.
Paul,
Not going to make it to the show this year due to Uncle Sam making Me go to drill that weekend, but things can change. I will keep you posted.
Breaker,
That pete is the revell diecast. I forget what scale it is though. been trying to find the wagon for it, but no luck so far.

Some small updates

Added some of Freddies rails with the taper
http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/g...0Liner/025.jpg
Added a 55t motor with a 6t pinion. This combo slowed it way down
http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/g...0Liner/020.jpg
Repainted the cab, filled in the antenna hole on top, filled in the holes for the light switches and trailer plug and lowered the turn signals on the cab.

Yep John, thats the next step. All thats left is remount the fenders, install the deck plate and fifth wheel servo, build or have a tail plate made and finish up a few small details.

Re: My Globe
 
Thanks for the comments guys. It's nice to finally be close to having this truck done.
rcman, that paint is testors fiery orange. I got it at a local craft store here in MN. It's a lacquer paint in a rattle can.:D

Re: My Globe
 
Man this one sweet globe. Everything is purfect...color's, stretched frame, John's fenders, and so on. You've got me wanting to get my fenders from John mounted.
To sum it up in one word...EXCELLENT!!!

Big John

Snowman 12-20-2011 06:47 AM

Re: My Globe
 
Great colour, it really pops. Will you add any contrasting stripes or just alllll orange? How long's the frame? Lookin' large!

petermoblin 12-20-2011 12:02 PM

Re: My Globe
 
Nick, the frame is 26.5" and the truck will look like a Florida orange grove, nothing but orange:cool:

Re: My Globe
 
Little bit of an update.
Got your fenders mounted up again John. I used 2mm hardware instead of the 3mm I used before.

http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/g...1325465853.jpg
http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/g...1325465793.jpg
Painted the inside of the pipes to look like there is soot build up.
http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/g...1325551967.jpg
And added some bare metal foil to the door hinges, door handles, cab steps and front vents on the cab. Also painted the window gaskets flat black to simulate rubber gaskets.
