I found a couple of items I left off.  The bell that goes high on the left side of the hood about midway to the dynamic brake grills and a small grab iron that goes just below the headlights on the cab.  Here's another shot.

 Too bad you live so far away

I would have tried to con you into doing my diesels

I am retired so I have a lot of time on my hands.  If you don't mind paying the postage, depending on the scheme you want I can paint and decal your models.  Of course my labor doesn't come for free but I am reasonable.

That is really sharp.  I love the clean look about it and then just the hint of grime on the yellow stripes!  Fantastic work!

Very nice. I love the subtle weathering on the pilots. Really sets it off.

All that is needed are the ditch lights which are on order.
