Wow, these are really cool!  Trucks decorated to match the real trucks owned by modelers.    :o

That's really cool.   Looks like all of them are customer-centric.     Great idea!   Congrats.

I dread seeing that email from Trainworx. It always costs me a lot of money. I'd almost rather get a letter from the IRS. At least I'd have a fighting chance.

Mike how cool is that , maybe you can come up with a TV show script or have a " ride on part " . Cool name and simple scheme for Hollywood to paint up . Do anything note worthy with it ?

NAH, Nothing outrageous. Just tryed to make a living. I sold it in 1990. Couldn't keep up with JB Hunt's low prices. Went back in 1994 hauling mostly food. Sold out in 2000 to become an engineer on NJ Transit..

So wait - this is a model of your exact truck?  Or just a coincidence?

Looks like Trainworx is really doing seriously custom paint jobs!  And we thought that the movie-theme trucks were cool - this is taking it up few more notches!

Willmodels (on eBay) offers a beverage body.  Then all you need is a custom-printed decal. If you have some good straight-on photos making a decal would be easy. Or even easier,  you could do it yourself: print the entire side of the body (sized to fit the model) on a piece of paper and just glue it to the model.  Do the same with the rear end.

When does Russ get his own truck?

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."
