Hello guys
I present to you the latest model I transformed: the Terex AC1000/9. I repainted it in the colours of the Belgian company DUFOUR.
I think it is one of the first AC1000/9 Conrad repainted in the world.
Let me know what you think of my work

Your paint work looks professional and the model looks outstanding.
I was hoping to paint mine some day but I know it would be a major undertaking.

My personal opinion, I think this new girl on the block looks better then any LTM 11200 livery.

Dufour is a great livery and you've done an excellent job. I've seen this in FB already! I am hoping also to paint an AC1000/9 but I am waiting to see which company actually buys one first.

Hi Andre,
Nice paint job on that AC1000....I really like the color scheme.
For some reasons, it remembers me of the good n'ol Bucyrus Erie colors, minus the dark green.
Great job!!
TED, if you think that doing such job paint is a big undertaking, wait until you see what i got my self into!!!!!
(pictures to come, eventually)

Cat 245.....Now and Forever

I am looking for industrial auction brochures from Ritchie Bros, Miller & Miller, Forke Bros, First Team Auction, Max Rouse, etc from the 70's, 80's and 90's.I am a collector and heavy equipment enthusiast and these pamphlets are loaded with nice pictures of cleaned and freshly painted equipment.Thet don't have much value once the sale is over but they are a great help to me in preserving the memory of machines that are no longer being built.Please, help my hobby by looking in your old storage boxes and file folders for these old auction sale brochures.Your help is much appreciated.

Thank you gentlemen, your comments are very nice.

Currently, I work in the transformation of a Renault Magnum to the colors of Mediaco Vrac (carriage of liquids of the Mediaco group).
I work also in the transformation of a LTM1350 - 6.1 in the colors of a French company

Excellent custom crane models ! They look just as good as the AC500 Breuer & Wasel that you sold to me a few years ago. Thanks again for the t-shirt.
