Well, it's finally done! After inumerable delays, two run-ins with the cats (Cats - 2, Truck - 0), lost parts, etc.; I am proud to present my Louisville Slugger CBP Submission. Enjoy! Hope you liked it. Extras include: wired engine (per Ken Smith's article), Ryder decals from Model Express, Ford logo decals from (the now defunct) DMTW, 2-hole Budds from Dave @ AITM, steerable front axle, & tilting hood.

Thanks, guys. I'm learning & I'm trying. Did forget the radiator brace, though. I'll have to add that later.
