Nice Model R fire engine. I prefer the Model U myself, I wish someone would release a Model U again, I'm getting tired of searching for the old Magnuson/Walthers ones..
 


nice mirrors on that R model. I have a R tractor but never made mirrors for it. All yours needs is the dog on the hood repainted gold. Gold dogs on the R and U model macks would have represented an all mack drivetrain. just a little trivia for ya...

I've tried in the past, but the small details can be real tricky. I just bought marker and tail lights from LoneStar Models and they are soooo small. I have been totally unsuccessfull in adding them to any of my vehicles and trailers.
 
Nice batch of detailed vehicles. I'm so far behind with loco and freight cars that the thoughts of starting to detail vehicles is depressing:(

See I love all of it, but IMO the possibilities are endless with the vehicles. In my mind there are so many different routes you can go...
 
Love that Pete with the third axel, but then again, I have a soft spot for Peterbilt's.

I picked up 2 of the malibu ones from wallyworld when they had them. Both yello, so I repainted one of them white with black fenders and brought the chrome back out on the body kit. I even touched up the marker lights in the chrome kit to look more realistic.
I leased one for a little over a year back in 2000. It was a new 379 with unibilt sleeper, cat 3406 set at 400hp with a 12 speed tranny. Didn't have a single problem pulling with it, stopping on the other hand, lol.... Kind of hard to stop with a 53' box wagon full of bandaids and tampons going at 60mph. :D

LOL I was thinking the same thing!
I used to haul Bandaids and plugs as well.
Dsquared... you should look at building a diorama with some roads, you have some nice stuff there!

I WANT TO, but I'm in the middle of trying to move somewhere closer to work. Plus space is limited where I live now.
