mowerman Posted June 1 Author Share Posted June 1 Heh almost missed this… excellent hopefully you don’t find yourself loosing interest at your age as I did…. It takes alotta patience and concentration I didn’t realize till I started working on mine or tryed to get it finished… I realized u had a lot more to offer as a teenager.. devotion to these models seems to have slipped away with time best of luck with that… also I’ve never seen the freightliner but I think I put together the peterbilt conventional and cab over long time ago bob 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75059-starting-dm800-plastic-model/page/5/#findComment-576753 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mowerman Posted August 21 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 21 Ha ha, hell put that thing back in the closet about a month ago Mrs. mower was bugging me.

mowerman Posted Wednesday at 08:27 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 08:27 PM OK, no promises, but I’ll be pulling the model back out of the closet very soon. I think I’ll start on the interior. I’m going to detail it a little bit more than I planned. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75059-starting-dm800-plastic-model/page/5/#findComment-587729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted Wednesday at 08:30 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 08:30 PM I started messing with an old reel lawnmower. I’ve had 20 years or so and decided the weather is not quite nice enough. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75059-starting-dm800-plastic-model/page/5/#findComment-587730 Share on other sites More sharing options...
