Would that were true Mr. Marlow. another glaring discrepancy to be dealt with....I haven't mentioned it before because I was hoping someone would notice. Keen eye Sir! I do have a remedy but it will take place later on in the build, just before paint flies. I have a set of Archer water slide decals with the required transfers to install over the retarded little grill work in this kit. I did a test of them on a piece of styrene (in a hurry) to see if they would look ok.....they will do the job.Definitely better Rick. Assume the bonnet grills are separate?
Thanks I liked building those little rigs at one time till my hands got so much arthritis in them I had to stop. I try to just build the simple ones now and even that’s a challenge. Many years ago I wanted to post my 1/87 truck builds here but I didn’t want to steal you and Paul’s thunder I didn’t want people to think I was flexing my muscles I’m not that kinda guy. My last count of pics I have of the 1/87 Trucks I built was over 500 I built about three a week for eBay and sometimes for Customers for at least ten years.Yes indeed Lee, that was the whole point of this exercise.....with out that feature it would be a dead scene. Thanks for commenting and I'm pleased you are liking it so far. BTW, I came across an old build of yours in 1-87 scale today on another website. A KW W921 Tanker and Pup done up in SP logo.....Very attractive little build Sir.
Do a separate thread Lee!Thanks I liked building those little rigs at one time till my hands got so much arthritis in them I had to stop.

Yeah Lee.....probably depend a lot on pricing and wether or not it's an accurate rendition of a bullnose. I have no doubt that Don's model is accurate..... between him and Ralf Ratcliffe, they pretty much have a corner on the market.I might I’m sure I can find a place to start posting them. I’ll have to dig out my jump drive and get them down loaded some how. I have a few I can get now I’ll think about it. I seen that Rick about the Bullnose Don Mills sales of that one will probably go in the tank because you have to build his
Don’s is the more Accurate but it’s resin and the cab is twisted it was casted that way and very fiddly to work with lots of patience to get it to look decent these days it has to be Ready to Roll who cares about accuracy like we are.Yeah Lee.....probably depend a lot on pricing and wether or not it's an accurate rendition of a bullnose.
