Re: Wildland Brush Fire Truck..

Re: KW Aerodyne W/Ext living room.AKA Motor home!
Not usually a fan of huge sleepers but this looks so bad to the bone I've been converted! Especially with the full fenders. This will be a showstopper when you finish it. What colour scheme are you...

Re: Project : Petico (Pepe Le Pew )
Wow Steve, nobody but you would attempt body work on a metal cab wedico! And I always wondered to myself if anyone had ever attempted converting the wedico 359 to a 379. This may be a world premiere!...

Russ (Russisloud) is the man!
Excellent product (dummy air suspension) and well packaged as always. Russ goes out of his way to make sure you have exactly what you're after.
