Corgi Mack / Fruehauf tractor trailer - to install figures in cab, rivets have to be drilled out, and replaced with screws.

I love VWs anyway but the best part is the parking ticket on the windshield. What a great touch, WestSideJoe. Great scene as are all your others. Thanks for posting.

W.S. Joe'... I've removed rivets. not easy, but worth the effort. This was Grandfathers favorite Ale'... great truck, and the bug with the ticket on it'.. very cool as mentioned by TRR. Nice displays and work'...

Does anyone know of superdetailing kits for these Mack B's? I have the Corgi Ballantine truck and it really needs a few extra details like mirrors, external air filter, and brake / electrical lines between the tractor and the trailer.

No Lee, nothing yet............Sorry'...
This is the original Chevy stake truck box. The new kit says the skill level is 2, but the multi-piece cab assembly is a bear to get just right. Too bad they didn't re-mold the cab as one piece.

West Side Joe, you've got some great looking vehicles there. Great to MABSTOA green on that Fishbowl. Don't know how you scored the Ballantine Mack, I thought NJHRs had scooped them all up as shown in Paul Romano's picture.

It was one of only two on Ebay at the time. The other one was offered by a UK seller.
Right now there is one on offer on Ebay.

@trumpettrain I enjoy seeing your posts every week on SWSat. I know you live in the DC area. I have never seen you post an image of this green roofed building.
The "Little Tavern Hamburger" shop. I grew up going to the one in Alexandria VA. I loved those greasy paper bags of tiny pickle covered burgers and was so sad they disappeared in the 90's when I went off to college. I remember the building was all metal panels even the embossed roof shingles. Can you share pictures of your model? Is it a kit or scratched?
