I was always a fan of the Yosemite Sam "Back Off" flaps myself but naked women have a way of brightening things up.

Man Ed you have out done yourself.

Nice ride...can't wait to see the girly flaps.....

We'd all like that, but then we'd have to charge a membership fee.

Hey Ed, while searching for alloy rims, I came across these scale truck rims and thought you might want to add them.

 

[Lessen]

wow! those are awesome. I sort of wish the holes were circular though.

 

[Rolex]

I think they're beautiful. Kind of a more modern look than the classic circular. I also think it's a really good price.
3 sets needed, though, for an 18 wheeler.

yeah, they are VERY nice nonetheless. but $420 nice? Ouch.. I guess it's all about perspective though. My funny car kit was $470 and you can see there isn't a whole lot to it. Yes, the quality is great but it's still $470 for about 1/2 lb of product. The eye of the beholder right? I'm sure if I had one of those trucks and I had my heart set on having it super scale lookin I'd drop the dough too.

It was seeing the $139 for 6 that struck me as a really good price since I've been looking for 40 or 44 series Alloy rims today. Some were close to 250 a set.
When I was posting it, it dawned on me that for an 18 wheeler it really adds up.
If it was mine, I'd buy a set a week, that way I wouldn't see the pain of the entire purchase.

but then you're paying shipping three times.

Damn Eddy, I should apoligize about ragging on you and the "boat build."
Don't think I will though. (Maybe I'll just post pics of the 3 or 4 pcs of my Stuka )

I missed this build. That is one sweet truck.
Can't believe the detail that went into that truck. And the trailer... That is awesome.
Are all of their kits that good?
