No, nothing in particular, Other than keeping the dark blue as the base color. Like I said, just looking for ideas. Just let your imagination run wild!

Very nice work
How long have you been creating these trucks?
Are these trucks you've built from scratch or did you start with a base model and then customize them? Regardless splended work!

Hmmm, if you have time, do me up an ATCO W900L w Aerodyne II Aero Sleeper, pulling a spread axle 53' Dorsey ribbed side dry van... ;)

I can give ya the color schem later...

Well anyways keep up the good work, and tell us what ATC stands for...

I have been working on this stuff since about December 2004. Actually, all these trucks started from base models on the game, I just heavily modified them. I do scratch build some parts though. The tire carrier on the C120 is my work, and all catwalks are. The W900L (black one) bumper is my work. Most of the spread axel flat is made by me though.

As far as your Kenworth...I know where I can located a truck like that, already made. Just need to make the skin (paint job). I could work out a reefer too. Guess we'll see what happens!

Oh, and ATC stands for 'American Trucking Customs'. I have a site to go with it, its just under construction again, lol. I will have a link in my profile in a bit. Somehow my WWW link in my profile is gone :wtf:

:cool:

Yes I do. I am friends with a guy who is "well off"... He is best friends with Bob Penella... They are both 'Italian', and very proud of their 'values'... Anyways, Bob has been painting his latest stuff "Viper (Dodge) Red", and my friend just started up a contract carrier for Cargil, called I think Dependable Transportation is ALL brand new Peterbilt 379's ( I think he bought 20 or so) and brand new 53' Reefers... btw, Since Bob is painting them Viper Red, my friend decided to paint his "Corvette Red"... geez...

I wish I had that kinda money. My friend is kinda cocky, he bought one extra 379, just to put in his office/workshop... So that when people ask him why, he can say "Because I can"...


Also so you know, I did a stint (2 years) in Stockton... I'm glad I'm back home...
