  3. Thanks mr. 12 Volts. The purple makes it really stand out.
  4. Build after the co-star in the 1978 movie 'Convoy'. It's in scale 1:13 and it took me quite a while to get all the dark purple and bulk white bricks. I set off starting to build the black 'Rubber Duck' MACK R700 fromt the same movie, but I changed my plans after Anders Gaasedal finished his version in that year and I ought to thank him for that because it made me start on this model. The MACK Cruiseliner brought a lot of new challenges and it was not that I could copy the red Cruiseliner that I've build earlier. Most challenging was finding the parts in the color dark purple. It isn't that common and some parts that I would like to use, are not available. So, with the available set of parts, I started of designing digitally in Leocad. After that I was able to import the partslist into Bricklink, to find out that the 1x1 plate in dark purple had a huge pricetag. To overcome that financial issue, I had to replace all the 1x1 plates in the design for more affordable alternatives. With orders for other projects I collected the parts I needed for building the cabin. After the cab I started on the chassis and the MACK camelbacksuspension on the rear, and with some chromed parts it allready looked great. Next was the V8 engine, that eventually made me to rebuild the interior of the cabin, to get it fitting over that engine. I designed the striping and lettering so it resembles the prototype. Impressive as the MACK is, it wouldn't be 'Pig Pen' without the reason for the alias. So I had to design the livestock trailer. Leocad proved to be great for my numerous failed attempts. In the end I got to this way to make the trailer. Although it looks fragile, it's rather sturdy.
  5. Not sure of if I'm getting your request right. Do you want someone to make it for you?
  6. I had the pleasure to see this in action at Legoworld in Utrecht last month. Awesome job!
  7. Sad to hear that such a nice guy passes away too soon. We shared the love of American trucks and I'm sure he was an inspiration to many. Glad I met him more than once.
  8. Looking sharp, even for a Skoda ;-) . Great renders (would be great to see it build).
  9. For what I see is that the wheels look too small.
  10. Top build. Great colorcombination. (Where can I find the Pete?)
  11. Looking great. Only thing I miss is a bullbar
