Automobiles/ Trucks 1/43-1/50 scale let’s see them

I found this 1:43 pickup truck outfitted with US Air Force Security Police decals on Ebay.  Mick the Dalmatian (RIP) made me proud when he joined the service! 

And for the OGR Magazine crew, yes, that's the little whistle stop shed from the Ameri-Towne product line.  I detailed it a little bit with some paint, windows and a grain of wheat light.  It served as "gate shack" for the sentry at the entrance to Liberty Air Force Base on my last layout.  It's safely packed away with the rest of my trains for the "next layout" I'll start building sometime next year after some basement remodeling work.

My daughter did 4 years in USAF Security Forces. Thule, Ali Al Salam and McGuire.  That would be a great addition to the layout.  Where did you get on eBay?

Several vendors sell USAF Security Forces vehicles on Ebay.  This vendor has one for sale now for $21.99 plus shipping.

i found this paint in Wallmart'... It is Army green'... Looks like it will work great for Military Vehicles...

🤬 I see all my photos are gone from my post on Integrity motors, and Baby's first car'.. Never had this happen before.  I spent a few good hours writing and re-sizing the photos.. for the presentation.  Very curious why this happened???

Ted, I noticed that some of the photos were missing the same day you posted, I just thought the photos would just pop up when ready!

Yes, Ted, I noticed they were missing, too! I hope you can re-post them, as it was an interesting little story line.

Artie

I used that paint on a Marx tin boxcar that has some new trucks and couplers coming and I have a set of Army decals to finish it off.  The color is dead on for the Army green that I was surrounded by before changing to Marine Corps green, which is slightly lighter and a shade browner than the Army version.

Waiting for my paint order to come in, but trimming and assembly of parts continues. You can’t have enough weights and clamps! My dog is bored.

Somebody looks awful comfortable'.....😊

Not sure if the forum is having a technical issue.  I had a 100 plus Forum responses from my post the other day in my junk mail file.  Many were the same response several times over.  The same post that all my photos disappeared'...???  I recommend everyone check their junk file'....

Progress looks good. How about a Avatar Artie

Okay, Lee, you asked for it! I was hesitant, because I lost my right eye, and most of my right sinus to cancer two years ago, and avoided photos. Now, I’m just happy to still be around, and enjoy my family, friends, and hobbies, so I don’t sweat it as much.

We're also happy you're still around.

Artie, that is a dam good picture'... Lot's of character'... You look great'... Now if we only get Paul to follow suite'.....😁

Thanks, guys! I sometimes think about hoisting a “Jolly Roger” on my 14 foot tin boat while I’m out fishing!
