Hi, I'm from the UK and have been modeling for some time. I'm very sorry but my German is not good. I love the movie CONVOY and have looked at Sven's Trucks in awe!!!!

But I thought my first CONVOY truck I'm going to make one I've never seen before.... enjoy.






P.S. can anyone help me find an R700L hood?

Hi
Your Diamond looks good. For the Mack RL700 hood look at Spaulding.

Hi,

your Spider Mike is in great progress , i think you are the first person to built a right Spider Mike . Where did you buy the conversion kit?
If you will have a right RS700L Hood, (the same i use on my Duck Model), you can get it from Bobby Griffen! Do you know who this is?

Best regards
Sven

Hello Borz666,

a very interesting truck and model. A project something in further future already planned from me. But I still lack the whole accessories.

Your model is until here great built. A very good manufacture of the details.

Greetings
Thomas

Thank you.

Sven: I am saying your Trucks are BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

The truck is an Autocar A64b chassis with the front axle moved foward. the Cab is the Diamond T-921 from AITM.
The fuel tanks are the 50gal tanks and 5 hole wheels from AITM also.

Hi Chris
Welcome in this board. I hope you show us more of your Spider Mike. I think this is the first Model of Spider Mike. It's a very good scratch.
Bye John

Here are some more progress pictures of painting and a mock-up:





Does any one have a picture of the doors so i can make decals?

I think it is "FLY FREIGHT"

Chris

Hi Chris,

your Spider Mike is looking amazing!!! Keep up the good work!

Grüßle Sven

Hi
Now is the truck ready? No new pictures?
Bye John

No, build has been delayed due to some Aircraft builds.
Will get back to this truck in the new year.

Chris

Good News!

I Have started working on this model again!
I will post some pictures tonight.

I have a question for Thomas (Rubber Duck): Where did you get decals for Pack Rat's Peterbilt?

Chris

Hi Chris
That's good news of course. I like this truck. Send Thomas a private mail. He is not online every day.
Bye John

Hello everyone.

I have had to go back some steps, as I have found some new details that I missed before.
First I have remove all "Diamond T" logo's, I have created the damage to the roof of the cab, and I have made the damaged roof lights.
Leaving only the two working ones on either side.




Cheers

Chris

Hello Chris,
