Hello, My name is Robby Gaines from East Bernstadt, Ky. I have been building mostly truck models since I was around 7 years old. I am partial to Paccar stuff but I like them all to some extent. Primarily 1960's thru 1987. I mainly build 1/25th scale but have dabbled in many others. Here are a couple pics of my latest builds. These 2 are 1/32 Monogram kits aklong with a scratchbuilt sign. If anyone is interested I have pics of most of my collection on Facebook. Robby Attachments:

Robby--I enjoy looking at the Chevron combo. You nailed the look perfectly. One of these days I want to get around to doing one using the same scheme.
