Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

The trailer is very nice! The rims you have on there just set it off all the more. It's a sharp looking set-up. I thought at one time Ric did offer these in Wedico scale, or maybe that was just me thinking he did because the original pictures of the trailer were released with it hooked to a Wedico truck. I think my favorite part of the trailer is the neck and deck.

Also looking forward to seeing that Globeliner all put together, with that front bumper and the grille.

Got the front end and shocks done :D. And before anybody says anything. Pink gives it character :D:lol:. Gona try and start on the transmission today :D

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Lol ! .... Ok Keith, if you want pink shocks that's fine :D.

I'm really liking this globe build too. Russ's grille looks great and no styrene work required to install eh?
I still haven't figured out what to do with my globe yet so I'm anxious to see how this baby turns out.:bounce::D

Wow, I didn't think anybody was using so many Tamiya parts in their builds anymore.

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Nice progress on your Globeliner build Keith.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get those stands from?

Gary

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Nice build so far Keith.Looking nice.Rc4wd has those stands Homer.07.They come in handy on builds like these.

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Thanks very much for that info RodneyO.

I am in the process of 2 builds at present.

Freightliner Coronado done in Pearl Black with Metallic Red flecks.

MAN TGX 26.540 done in Metallic Red.

I have been taking photos as I go.

I have only posted on the Hobbyking site some of my Freightliner build.

Both of the truck bodies are off getting a professional paint job.

Will create thread once I get the bodies back.

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Did you get some color on your trailer yet? Can't wait to see it.

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Keith I like the bumper.Who makes it?

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Thanks Mario :D. Its easy to install. Just drill some holes to mount it.

Re: Smiley's Garage/Shade tree mechanic
 

Well this is my first truck that I'm building so I'm just learning :D. And no I haven't got any paint on the trailer yet. I've got a few other things that im doing before that :D
