Thanks! No sound, I would be more interested in doing a hinged hood and full detailed interior.

Here are some pictures from the NorthWest Model Hobby show(Monroe, Wa) this weekend, I entered my semi's in the "Scale Display" event. I didn't win anything, I more enjoyed seeing people checking it out, answering questions about it and amazing everyone when I gave a kid a ride...lol(it can pull about 80lbs). All in all, it was fun.




Here is another picture of a roaster model that was there, that thing had some killer details.

I know this thread is a little old but has anyone else did the steering link like in post #21, was wanting to add the cat engine to mine but need some alternative steering options and were to get the parts like the one in #21, looks like a good idea but dont know what parts were used to make it.

Hey Justin,

What's the latest on these rigs? Any news or updates? Looks like I'll be joining the world of Tamiya semi truck owners soon myself.
