DCP Walmart Cascadia slight error

feeds@yuku.com (Freightliner Guy) — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 14:47:59 GMT

Hello All, Looks like DCP made a slight error on the new Wally World Cascadia. I will let you see if you can spot it before I give you the answer. I will say it's NOT the sides skirts or the power generator and I will give you a picture of a real truck for reference... Happy Hunting!!

Found one I needed

feeds@yuku.com (Redmac II) — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 19:30:40 GMT

Wow... Even I'm kind of surprised, but I ran into one that just plain needed to be in the collection. It's a kill 2 birds sort of a thing - it gives me a Cascadia and a gopher gas hauler. I don't much care for the logo on the truck and trailer, but unless something has changed since the old days, that can be dealt with easily enough if necessary. I hope this finds everyone well and ready for the holidays.

What trailer is it designed on~ Utility, Freuhauf, other?
Do all the trailers have the pin on the back of the trailer like the pups do?
Thanks!

Next Year's Lefebvre Truck - Going to be Hot!!!

feeds@yuku.com (TruckinBoy) — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 07:26:36 GMT

This would certainly look sweet for next year. I see them running these cement tankers around the Twin Cities all the time, I'm sure Kevin and Josh can back me up. I was speaking with one of their employees on Monday and he thinks the next model will be something related to the Wind Power industry.....I'm going with my photos though. It would sure benefit the entire collecting market if they did one like this though. The other company possibilities would be endless.

Anyway,...

DCP 32033 FREIGHTLINER EFFICIENT MACHINE

feeds@yuku.com (iliketrucksandtrains) — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 20:32:46 GMT

Does anyone have this model, and if so, can anyone tell me what is the small print on the cab doors? Does anyone have any close-up pics of this truck, or can take any? Is the interior of the cab and sleeper detailed like the other DCP models? I am most interested in seeing more of this model, and if anyone can help me (with pics especially, I would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
James

New First Gear 1/64th

feeds@yuku.com (GRIM REAPER IA) — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 19:35:30 GMT

Hello All,

I was at my local Iowa City/Coralville Hyvee supermarket this evening and found a Hyvee 80th anniversary First Gear truck. The truck is a red IH 8600 with cab fairing and a 53' white trailer with the Hyvee 80th anniversary logo and pictures of Hyvee employee faces on it. The truck was only $30.00 so I figured what the heck I might as well pick it up.

Thanks, James

Penjoy rollback flatbed

feeds@yuku.com (ACB88) — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 20:33:51 GMT

In the latest Penjoy newsletter, under the Factory Seconds heading is listed a rollback flatbed. I was thinking this might be what Penjoy calls their lowboy, but lowboy is used to describe the D.H. Funk truck; so Penjoy does use the term lowboy. Does anyone know (and hopefully have a picture) what the Penjoy rollback flatbed trailer is?

DCP Newsletters?

feeds@yuku.com (iliketrucksandtrains) — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 13:31:18 GMT

Does anyone have the older DCP newsletters, and still gets them? I was going through my older newsletters, and noticed that I was missing a few of them. The ones I am missing are:
VOL. 1, NO. 7- 2003
VOL. 3, NO. 12- 2007/08?
VOL. 4, NO. 1 2008?
Can anyone describe what is contained in these newsletters, especially anything pertaining to 1:64? I'd like to get them, plus any others, but would like to find out about them first. As well, what was the latest issue out (VOL....

What size brass channel do you guys use for stretching a DCP 379 frame? 5/32 or 7/32? Do you use the same size for all DCP tractors? What advice can you give me, where to cut and splice the frame? I've asked for this advice before, but can't remember and can't find the old post, so please help me out again. Thanks!
