    They just might. The whole deal is sitting on a warmer for the time being. The wife and I are going to down size and it's taking my full attention at the moment. Working on the house, the garage, and the barn all about the same time. Huge undertaking. And looking at houses to boot. So just hold...

    That would be possible but not likely. Sorry, but taking the time to make those type changes just wouldn't be worth it in the long run. Time would be much better spent creating a new truck.

    None yet. If this becomes an ordering session, I'll move it to Classifieds where it belongs. I'll attach it to my sig then too. I still have to come up with a price. One I'm sure everybody won't like. It is a one of a kind piece for each person. Anyway, keep letting me know who's interested and...

    Keep the requests coming. It'll help decide on buying the printer to do these. I don't ever want to go through what I did with the first printer again. What a mess. I requested 10 and 3 were so badly broken in the shipping I couldn't repair them. Couldn't even get my money back. So. It may be a...

    Okay guys, help me make a decision. How many of you would like a model of these? I'd be printing them at 1:24 scale. That's about 6" front to back. Have to decide if I want to buy my own 3D printer. If enough people would like these, I could model up other trucks too. 45s, 60, 80s. You know the...

    PLans are on hold for now. BUT! If I create other models AND get a new 3D printer, Sure, I'll build a 45. Just don't hold your breath.

    I paint them all. They’re printed in two pieces. Body with the spare and the rolling chassis. Of course, no, the tires don’t roll.

    Some of you may have seen my cartoons of an FJ40 before. TLCA made some shirts and stickers with one of them. This FJ40 was headed for making a 3D version of that cartoon from the beginning. Here's the cartoon and the model as a copy.

    Hold on to your britches. That was a teaser. Pay attention for updates to the model.

    You heard me. I’ve built a handful of FJ40s in my aging years and they’ve taken 1.5 to 10 years. But I finally mastered it and this one only took 7 days. I had a cheat sheet though. A little more than 20 years ago, I was a 3D modeler for an animation company. I was the technical modeler for...
