These are awesome kits!
@Martin. The Rex mixer is quite large, however the KW Transit Mixer, is a tad smaller, and easily available on the current market. Get yourself one 😉

Actually I have just got the KW Transit from Amazon. Always wanted a mixer. Another model into the queue...

I picked up the Mack DM800 Rex Mixer, in good condition. It was a highlight for me. The 800 is a tricky kit, but I had to have the mixer to complete the collection. I plan to do the tri-axle option, when I get around to it. But I gotta admit, the Paystar makes an awesome kit.

They are beasts. Just wonder why the rear fenders on the DM800 and Paystar mixers are so long - extending so much in front and arear of the tandem.

In the kit, they explained how to convert it into the tri-axle. They even tell you what kit to buy, to extend it! Pretty good marketing, at the time, eh? Lol

Thank you Martin Oostrom, Goldman, Neuling, Bozzer. I like construction equipment and have a 1:50 diecast collection. I built the cement mixer because I liked the Ertl/AMT models of the "International" line. I have built the 1972 Scout, the 2011 ProStar, the PayHauler 350 and both the PayStar Cememnt Mixer and Dump Truck.

Curtis, you need more stuff!
The 360 backhoe.
The D8 dozer.
And of course, some lowloader trailers, to carry them!
(Don't forget to get some awesome semi's, to pull them?)
My name is Bozzer, I'm your bad influence 😉

I can attest to that. Ever since Bozzer showed up in a thread of mine, I've been buying truck stuff 😂

I have the AMT Caterpillar D8H Bulldozer, Lindberg 1968 Dodge + 1940 Ford + trailer, and AMT John Deere 310 Backhoe Loader. I will get more stuff and get more stuff finished. Thanks for the encouragement.

There's a very nice photo etch set, for the D8 dozer. I can't recall the maker at this time, but I've seen it and it's awesome. You can even get metal tracks for it, but I've only ever seen them online, once. We strive to do our best, but the main thing is, we just keep doing what we do.

Pretty cool. Those fenders look like they would like a tag axle added.

Thanks Martin. Those are awesome additions and I plan to get them all. I have a dozer built, box standard. It's the Caterpillar version, but the decals are actually "stickers" So, I plan to adjust that. My next attempt (yes, I already have another kit) will be the full PE version. I seriously need to hunt down those tracks though, because they looked amazing!

There are no tracks linked to the D8 kits. There are some new additions from a company called Garage Kit SCM Search: Garage kit
No clue as to where to buy them though.
I did find something else: papyhobby.com/collec..&gid=1&pid=1
On the same site, the tracks: papyhobby.com/products/d8-traction-kit-02
No clue if it's legit, but you can leave a rib behind if you want.
Sorry for highjacking Curtis!

Martin Oostrom I have enjoyed this discussion between you and Bozzer. I may just have to finish my Caterpillar D8H model. I was at Hobby Town today picking up some paint and saw that AMT has "Construction Bulldozer and Lowboy Trailer" $94.99 retail, but their price was $87.99 USD. I should point out to you and Bozzer that I did complete a D9R Doobi IDF armored bulldozer. The model is a Meng and has a ton of detail to it.

Thank you Pepe, Martin Oostrom and Goldman. My only wish is that directions would show pictures of how the part looks after it is attached. Too many arrows pointing in a direction and not even showing which way the part should be flipped. I am convinced that to build a model correctly one should do two of them. One to learn on and one to have for a nice, finished product. I tell myself that I build it because I like the subject matter, and it is only a representation. I felt bad that I couldn't align the white decal stripes better.

Very nice work Curtis. Looks like an absolute beast. How did the kit go together? I've got an AMT Kenworth Alaskan Hauler in the stash which I'm hoping to build soon. That will be my first truck model.

David Orr the truck part went together fine. The wrecker part that sits on the frame was a bit awkward. There were two options for the hooking part that led to some confusion on my part. I liked having the long cable but having it molded in plastic was not ideal and I probably should have substituted a fabric rope cable. I did like the way the mirrors in this kit were molded.

Italeri doesn't mold their cabs like other companies, and I did have trouble with Opal Blitz Classic cab assembly. On this one the hood lined up just right. Hood alignment has only been a problem on the Ford Louisville Series Delivery Van. If you like the hood you would also like Italeri's Classic Western Star 4964 and Australian Truck.

The Amtronic is the car of the future as AMT thought it would look like back in 1969. AMT created this iconic concept model kit after a Detroit car show. The Amtronic is actually two vehicles in one. The two-place forward section could separate and travel on its own. For longer trips, the rear "station wagon" module would attach to the forward section for significantly more capacity. The Amtronic has aircraft-like retractable wheels. For longer range transport, this vehicle would engage a magnetic rail system that would allow the car to be propelled several hundred miles per hour. The car would generate its own lift thrust using two turbine-powered lift fans while engaged on the magnetic rail system.

Thank you Gorby and Robert Podkonski! I bought this at model swap show this past spring. Just had to have it. The only difficulty is that with retractable wheels, I have no way to keep them in the down position. Still not sure how to pose it on the shelf. I recently added some photos with the mag-lev track.
