Wow nice stuff!

Holy Cow ! And some people thought I was a little nuts for working on 1:64s. 😳 Johnny

Love your box collection -- you could make a room divider out of them if you had about two or three more 😲 Johnny

Whoa -- super nice -- Looks like it could be sitting in a dealership, cleaned up and ready for sale. Love the detail of the little bit of rust on the unchromed part of the stack. Johnny

Oh yesss.. "Trailer got the slider damaged when it got knocked off the shelf" Hate it when that happens. HeHe , well, back to work then. 😎 Good to see you back. Johnny

That trailer bed looks nice and realistic -- even looks like it's had some use already. Good one.. Johnny

Just beautiful! I've always had a thing for those C model Fords (sorry -- scratch that -- Mercurys). Also love the vintage Wheel Horse! My dad bought one of them after I moved away so he wouldn't have to go back to pushing a mower. If I remember correctly that's a big starter motor mounted behind the cylinder and that 45 degree housing contains a belt drive from the starter motor to the engine crankshaft. Early tech at its finest! Johnny

MAXIDYNE ! That's beautiful -- also, love the fuel stickers 💗 I can't even guess how many miles I've driven in that same red F model, Dayton wheels and all. I used to drive for this guy who had like 15 of those -- all alike -- but only one had a chrome grill shell -- the rest had the standard silver-painted Mack original equipment. Whoever was his favorite driver that week got to use the chrome grill shell until they ticked him off and then he'd repo it when the driver wasn't looking and give it to someone else. So ya never knew until you got to the yard -- maybe chrome, maybe not. Keep on truckin' Johnny

Beautiful 😎 Great pic, too : the best of the old skool up in front with the latest tech way off in the background. Well done, sir. Johnny

Totally fixed it ! I really like that visual line with the sleeper right over the same size toolbox. That looks terrific 😎 Johnny

Lookin' real good! Kinda pretty much almost not quite enough wheelbase for that fabulous Mercury sleeper tho 🤔 But it sure would be a shame to leave the Mercury on the shelf, so how bout like three or four more feet of frame with the Mercury and the headache rack? Gotta love a large car 😎 Johnny

HeHe Excellent Love it Johnny

Beauty -- I love it. What's that paint on the tanks and hubs? I could use some of that. Johnny

WoW - excellent - like, THE BEST weathering ! I would rent that ! Johnny

Very nice. Love the rear mud flap treatment 😎 Johnny

Nice touch with the truck numbers ! Skilzzz 😳 Johnny

Lovin' the classic two-tone paint job 😎 Johnny

Yeah -- what Vincent said ! ^^^ A beautiful truck on a beautiful Spring day... Johnny

Nice gloss! Hard to float with metalflake -- lookin' good 👍 Johnny

Those look great! Love the Dodge especially -- talk about a forward seating position 😳 Yahh Johnny

That looks great ! Love the paint job and finish on the tanks. Johnny

Sweet ! BULLDOG ! Johnny

Vincen47, 2 things: 1. Wow ! Your engine looks beautiful 😎 and 2. What other forum you talkin' bout? Johnny

That's gonna be nice. The painted tanks will definitely be an upgrade. Engine and trans look great. But what kind of engine is that? Looks like it has a turbo propelled by both banks of cylinders -- is it like an 8V-92 or something? (Duh --not the world's biggest Detroit expert) Johnny

I've always liked the T800 -- a great truck that has stood the test of time for decades now. Did not know that about the windshields. Thanks for the info. Johnny
