Iisay yes and nice build!

I just wanted to make a quick note to say thank you to the admins at Model Truck Discussion, Model Truck Mafia, Building Big Rigs Tips and how did you do it and Model Trucks Other Than Pete or KW for allowing me advertise MTB.com in their Facebook groups. Thank you to those that have given me permission to post images of their builds in the gallery, to those who have added their own images and to those who have posted in the forums. Finally, thanks to all who have visited and/or registered. I hope you find your way here often, contribute content when and where you can, and most importantly, find the site useful and enjoyable. Please do not hesitate to let me know what I can do to make MTB.com better. --Casey

Love that chassis color!

Welcome Kerry! Glad to have you with us!

Spot on as usual. Thanks for sharing!

I have made several attempts at bending aluminum tubing to but have been unsuccessful in doing so without getting a flat spot in the bend. Can someone share a method that works or suggest and alternate material/procedure? --Casey

Lookin' good. The trailer wheels look killer,

Clunker? I am certainly having an issue finding fault with it. Very nice!

Welcome to MTB. Looking forward to seeing your projects. Let us know if we can be of help. --Casey

Beautiful work. I would suggest going with the stake bed but judging by your progress thus far, I'm sure which ever route you take will turn out fantastic.

You forgot to mention the bumper which is a nice touch as well. Thanks for sharing.

I'm going to need some for a planned project so I thought I would give building one a shot. The inside of the fender is 1.1" wide (27.5") they are a tight fit on the ROG Peterbilt and AMT Autocar wheels/tires but I think they will be okay. Any thoughts on the inside width and/or the overall look? --Casey

Just laid some paint on my full fender master. A little clear and some final "slicking up" and I will be ready to make the mold. I'm hoping to finish them in time for the new year.

That thing is a looker! Can't wait to see more! --Casey

I haven't seen @Joris on here in a long time. I'll reach out to him and see if he can reload the images.

Anyone care to share a method for making rivets?

Very cool! Fantastic detail and weathering. You guys never fail to inspire me.

Very nice!

Love it and since I'm a Tennessee boy, you can't go wrong with orange and white! #GOBIGORANGE #VFL

Fantastic work! Please keep us updated on its progress.

Man that thing look fresh off the farm, or maybe not so fresh off the farm. Either way, nice detail, weathering and presentation. I dig it!

Welcome to the reality of forums since the advent of Facebook groups (they have even slowed over the summer.) I agree that it could be a real nice place and as long as there are a few that reply and a few lurkers, I'll keep it running. Thanks for sharing your builds. They look real nice. I hope you'll stick around! Casey
