Nice to see you back. I have several versions of this casting from my youth. I never really paid attention but I have a few redlines in the box van version and the later black wall highway hauler (North American Van Lines). They were some of my favorites because at the time we had two of the real Kenworth COE's these are modeled after.

Thanks Junkman! I don't believe I ever had this one but I could be wrong. Wish I would have kept my old cars. Hope you;'re doing well sir!

[@CharlesSweigert]

Very cool to get a new video, man.

[@WheelsNThangs]

Thanks!

[@retalack]

I'm truly enjoying your return to video production. Very nice job on the truck. So many content creators have gone to just playing music during their videos but I'd much rather listen to your comentary as you work. Again, thanks and welcome back!

Thank you very much for your teachings in the videos, can you share the names or references of the liquids that you use to clean the parts?

The Dremel tool sounds like a chainsaw! Great job on this one. !:- )

[@WheelsNThangs]

Hehe

[@callmedixe1334]

would love too see a video showcasing your collection

[@WheelsNThangs]

It's not much to show. I have a ton but most of them are the grandsons. I only keep 20-30 for myself.

[@TaxedtoXXX]

Keep original wheels- yes

[@WheelsNThangs]

Yeah, I think it was a good choice!

[@gijim1968]

Would you have any interest in some other hot wheels? I have a Real Riders Mercedes 380SEL, the wind shield was damaged in a fire (as with a few others) I cheaply painted it, and it’s in fairly decent shape casting wise… I’ve several others like a Peugeot 505

[@janderakaleroydavis]

Didn't see the link for the vise, but found it online. What do you use to clean the bases( acid) ?

[@WheelsNThangs]

Here is what I use amzn.to/3Vq7wEb

[@tomthi3553n]

Dang that looks like Optimus Prime

[@2006gtobob]

Looks as if it was JUST removed from the packaging in 1976

[@WheelsNThangs]

Thank you!

[@user-dj2lx6wu5m]

If you didn't have the bed maybe you could've painted the truck like The Blue Mule..........lol......
