Maybe the Ship It on the Frisco should be a little smaller and then have a line of text above it or below it.
Played with the truck in Photoshop to see what the Ship It on the Frisco would look like. To me, it clashes with the QA&P stuff. I may have to...
A couple of shots of the latest rendition of the truck. Tom Holley and I talked about it and both had some similar views. It is too bad that I...
A solution hit me yesterday evening after posting this. Remove the fifth wheel; scratch build a cargo box to go on the back of the truck; use a...
The truck tractor is nearly done. Windshields, exhaust stack, horn and the hose tree are all it needs. It actually came out pretty well. But...
Jeff, Apparently, all of the shippers have a couple of things in common: high prices and pathetic service. The funny thing is that every time I...
The REA truck is done, but the results are not what I had hoped for. The level of gloss in the finish is kind of splotchy looking. Oh well. The...
This thread has had a bizarre agglomerate (I've always wanted to use that word in a sentence...just kidding) of trucks and vehicles, but since...
Yeah, some of the older stuff just was not made for today's highway speeds.
Keith, That would be a pretty safe assumption! Top speed would probably be around 45 mph, so it would not work for the highway either. The...
That truck was on Bring a Trailer and the bid went to $49,250 but did not reach the reserve. They are apparently pretty desirable! It is a...
Got a couple of more trucks done. These will be for the pecan orchard business on the layout: J_______M (J Bar M in brand lingo). My wife's...
Another great shot that hits close to home! My mom grew up in Quanah; my granddad was a lineman in Quanah. We currently live about 80 miles...
You keep posting the great photographs that have a connection to my past!! My maternal grandfather worked for the Frisco as a lineman--the vast...
That's some beautiful and hilly country. During college (probably 1974ish) a friend and I raced a bicycle race from Talahina, OK, to Mena, AR, up...
I have come fairly close a time or two in the past to doing exactly what you mentioned!
A little Mandarin orange and white running through the agriculture of west central Texas. Think Quanah and cotton. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Fredman was probably referring to my post about how difficult this model was to build. Below is the text from that. In context of my post,...
The truck is basically complete. It may get a few more details, but it is just about done. The figure nearest the truck will get repainted to...
It seems some models do not want to be built. They just want to stay in the box as un-built kits. This Chevrolet COE that is now a QA&P MOW...
