My friend Jon sent photos of his latest project,

a 1938 Oldsmobile.

After puting it aside for a bit,
I am back to working on the 1928 Chevy stake bed project.

I was not happy with the fit over the rear fenders,
so I got out the heavy machinery and did a little trimming.

Regards, Dave L.

The project is finished.

I'll paint it black to match the fenders.

Thinking about a livestock load for the bed.

The 1928 Chevy project is completed.

I really like this model by Liberty Classics.

Thanks for following along.

The Liberty Classics trucks are a great source for adaptation,
to very credible scale models for our large scale applications.

The 1928 Chevy and the Studebaker,
are especially good starting points.

Gearbox makes (made ?)
these nice 1920s Wayne pumps in 1:25 scale.

These are Shell and Gulf brands.
They would fit on any period layout.

I have not seen them for sale recently,
and they would be hard to find, I suspect.

Grab 'em if you find 'em.

I've had this Liberty Classics Studebaker van sitting around.

This is the van that the body is in two parts,
an upper and a lower piece.

This is the van without the top part.

Since there is not too much I could do with it,
I thought I would simply put a top on it.

I think a light brown color will look good...

I applied the thick paint with a Q-tip,

thinking it will give some texture to the smooth top...
