MrSypher Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 I placed an order for 2 of them about 2 months ago and one just came in.. Here's some pics... I'm gonna make both the trucks show trucks... And their gonna have tons of chrome and uncountable lights.. I already have all the lights which I'm gonna switch them out for, they're gonna be clear lensed leds.. After I start putting mod's on the trucks I'll post more pics.. What do you guys think of the first truck?? The other one is exactly the same.. 600hp cat with 18sp. tranny..
steviej Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 nice. I love huge rigs like that. Always wanted to be a truck driver....ever since I was a kid and saw the TV show "Movin On" with Claude Akins. I ended up in medicine instead. life is funny. Mr Sypher, have fun with your toys. steviej
99lsguy Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 Sypher, That thing is a beast :D BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry to ask , but what is your profession that you may acquire these little "TOYS' of yours............
SW03ES Posted May 1, 2004 Posted May 1, 2004 Why he's an LOC moderator. What, you didnt think we did this for free did you? As if! ;) lol, very cool Mike, can't wait to see the finished product.
MrSypher Posted May 1, 2004 Author Posted May 1, 2004 Sorry to ask , but what is your profession that you may acquire these little "TOYS' of yours............ Not a problem... These 2 trucks will be driving around the country with composted manure looking for those LOC members who act up in the forum.. After we find them, then we dump the load on their cars.. Because there aint nothing better than a nice smelly car to go with a nasty attitude. :D :o
VBdenny Posted May 2, 2004 Posted May 2, 2004 So I guess you never carry dirt in them then? I have a friend from the Phillipines and they have these reallyt ultra tricked out trucks and buses there. I saw some pictures and it almost looked like Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome trucks. ANyway, very nice looking rigs, I love the yellow with the chrome.

Dirt, Sand, and Gravel.. But I have a detailer on the payroll so they'll always be clean...
VMF Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 i love big rigs i really do but so far all i can afford is making em in 1/24 scale btw this is an LS400 model next to it:) Mike ur trucks are really good, if you want some help just let me know i will drive and work on em for free:)
93LSOwner Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 btw this is an LS400 model next to it:) Where did you get the kit?
VMF Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 you can buy them on ebay or in any decent hobby store. here are more pix of the work that has been done on the model:) http://public.fotki.com/VMF/models/plastic...i_lexus_ls_400/ and here are pix on the truck progress http://public.fotki.com/VMF/models/plastic...ri_scania_143r/
93LSOwner Posted May 7, 2004 Posted May 7, 2004 Thanks, I just got into this model building business. But, I didn't find any LS's in the hobby stores. So, thats why I thought maybe there is a special place or something. BTW: Your links have "The page cannot be displayed" error.
VMF Posted May 8, 2004 Posted May 8, 2004 oops sorry here it is again lexus and this one is for trucks truck lemme know if you need any help in model building:)
93LSOwner Posted May 8, 2004 Posted May 8, 2004 I bet that truck took days to put together. And, that LS400 with the Wald Body Kit is just outstanding.
VMF Posted May 8, 2004 Posted May 8, 2004 took me 4 layers to get the LExus like shiny paint:) here is the link to almost all of my models i used to have much more but they were lost during the move

YEah, you'll be seeing my 2 twins floating around here after I start modding them out.. As for right now I have clear lense LED's to replace ALL Insandesent lights.. Then I have these drop visors that go over the top of the winshield and drop down to about the middle.. And ofcourse some 8" straight pipes will be going on within a couple of months (the reason why it's gonna take some time for those is because there are about $1,000. each side, so that's 4 of them I need)..
VBdenny Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Great looking business cards. I do a lot of graphic design and have made many business cards and yours are perfect. Gave me a few new ideas! All you need is a big "L" on the grill. Keep on truckin' man! Denny
