Well, thought I did all the damage I could do to my modeling budget for the year. Figured no problem making it to January with a few bucks still in the old bank. Such was not to be the case I guess. I was minding my own business, looking at a buddies HO Scale Pontiac model and made the mistake of scrolling down a few posts on the HO Vehicle Board we belong to.
There it was, in all its oil dripping, rusty, squeaking, rattling, glory; the Brekina Needle Nose Peterbilt I've been wanting, done up in an homage to the Pete in Duel.
I'm actually using an ancient Ulrich Pete to make a similar homage to the movie Duel's tractor, this one will be fixed up as an outlaw running the backroads of Arizona, hauling whatever needs transportation. I have a resin kit for one too, just have not taken that step yet. Brekina did it for me mostly.
A nose only a mother could love, well and classic truck fans too; quite stylish really. Seems I love classic trucks a bit more than I should; whoops!
MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
