Thanks Gary & Vincen47 things are rough but managing much appreciated on the thoughts

Okay gang I'm back still here been a rough period to say the least 

Wife had a heart transplant. 2019

Early this year left leg and foot amputated 

So haven't really been in a modeling mood last few years 

And divorce coming in January 

Just hope yall can understand 

Well got some trailer work done the slider & reefer are by A-line and the slider functions.

Also cored out the reefer exhaust with a #80 drill bit 

Painted 3 wobblies red and a replacement grey wobbly. 

Still a ways to go  but made a little progress. 

Also got my Detroit 8V71 and my crackerbox inline Jimmy painted in Detroit alpine green. 

Getting there more to come over the next several weeks. 

Super cool Paul. 

Thanks Paul slow as a snail wait I think a snails faster lol. 

Taking my time on this one not sure what trailer will go with it yet. 

Phone blipped & lost a lot of the early build pics on this one. 

Started with an athearn ho 1/87 scale Freightshaker coe.

Opened the drivers door which will be hinged with. 0.014 tubing with 0.007 wire to mount it to the body or vice versa. 

Alloy forms roof airfoil,  many Plano PE parts going into this mini beast, scratched frame, scratched axles and suspension, Ratcliffe resin Driptroit 8V71 with Fuller lone ranger transmission hehehehehe, and a whole bunch of other scratched and PE parts.

And Napa provided genuine Driptroit alpine green 

Nice 70's look with wobblies. 

Paul that's looking really nice. 

Like the Mercury sleeper adds justvthevright touch. 

Such a nice Masterpiece in the works looking Beautiful. 

Cool like the looks of it so far. 

Thanks Paul hope to post pics soon. 

On hold at the moment fighting emissions testing to get tabs back on my ride.
