Just checking on per the rules.My name is Gary and live in Columbus,Ks.Like most I built as a kid then stopped.Started back up about 10 yrs ago when a friend got me an International Paystar dump truck for Christmas.Looking forwards to learning some new tricks and taking my builds past the box stock stuff I do now. Per rules here are a couple of pics.First is am Iveco TurboStar2 I been working on for about a year  This is my Paystar.Shortened the chassis and put a fifth wheel on it.  |

Gary,
Glad to see you made it over here.
I like the short Paystar! I may have to do that to one. From what I see on the Iveco, you've got a good start on it and what you've done looks good.
Be Well
Gator

Hi Gary, I like your modifications to the Paystar. A solid workhorse tractor, I can see it hooked to a dump trailer hauling rocks & fill at a jobsite.

Welcome, great looking Paystar. Don't often see these as just a tractor.

Welcome, Gary....Glad to see another truck modeler come to the forum....I really like the work you've done on the chassis of the Turbostar....You made, even those plastic tires, look good.....Never liked those, but they can look pretty nice...I've got quite a few Euro tractors, and I think I might just get to one on my next build......Great work on the Paystar, as well....

Thanks kilrathy.Not a fan of those plastic tires either but when I started the build it's was In a box stock cbp.As you can see I didn't finish it in time.I hope to have it done in the next 2 weeks as our club is having a contest the 5th of April.
