Hi Manu  :wave:

   You guys are so lucky that they re-released that old timer truck. It is so expensive here in the US that painting it or customizing it feels wrong. I like the look of the one with the gray tow hook but the one with the yellow one seem like mixing too completely different eras. Have you tried to see what it would look like with out the bed?  I also like the flat dark gray color of the truck you painted them.

   I am hoping some day we get our turn with a US re-release but till then I get to enjoy looking at other members creations




   Thanks for sharing

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

This would make a good Galloping Goose railcar, good idea! Like your trucks Manu but that yellow crane seems awfully massive. Thanks for the photos!  :wave:
