Very nice, Joe. Very nice.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Not yet podna. Still hammering away at the 1:1 truck. I've got most everything now except the engine which should be here in the next week or so. Still here but have so many real world projects going right now.

Very understandable. All my Model work is about to come to a halt for the next 3 1/2 weeks...

Quietly checking the thread... this is a good one to read through again when I feel overwhelmed. Perspective restored, sir. Good luck with the 1:1 Project. Catch you again soon!

In planning ahead for my next continuation build I just got some wheels in that I ordered a few days ago. I think I'll give these a whirl. And yes these are aluminum and no don't ask how much they cost. :headslap:

Those are some killer looking rims! Are they made from
Metal or metal plated?
