thanks rick,glad you liked them,these were two mint 1960;s kits, i dont think the newer ones came in these same colors, i had to build them, they looked too cool to leave in their boxes, the fire truck no 13 was also a mint kit, next is a mint mpc paddy wagon to be built, the collectors are going to hate me for this, but i have about 75 or so original mint kits from the 60's and early 70's and im going to build them all.

Here's one from the old CC, and while not my last finished kit, its the last one that took forever & a day to work on (since then I've completed the Seaview sub and the Polar Lights Batmobile). Plus I like to show it off! : For those of you who haven't seen it yet, this is a rebuilt Eldon Milk Truck, a glue bomb I picked up off from eBay that came with its original box and instructions. For a glue bomb, it wasn't half bad, a lot of work still was needed, but not nearly as much as it could have been. It was completely torn down and rebuilt. The work came from replacing parts that were either missing, ones I didn't like on the original, or I just wanted to replace so it looked better. Parts from other kits, resin parts, and scratchbuilt was done to get it together, along with redone decals from Dekal Dan!

Thanks guys!!!! I submitted pictures for the Guest Gallery a while back, right before the old CC went ad & fart button crazy and didn't our host have computer problems too? May have to resubmit those pics (or take new ones, which I don't mind at all playing with the camera)!
The Milk Truck used to pop up fairly often on eBay, but haven't checked it for a while ... it sure showed up more than the other Eldon kits, and at better prices too.
I need to get me that trike, so I can build it and put them together!
